Mossflower is a fantasy novel by Brian Jacques, published in 1988. It is the second book published and third chronologically in the Redwall series.
A fun follow-up to the first Redwall book. Much more violent outing though, and the enemies were at times a bit too dense. I liked it overall, and has me excited for the next book in the series.

Listening to the audio version I liked that it was again read by a full cast, with slightly better recording and mixing (but still bad). The story and characters themselves are much improved from the paper thin tropes of Redwall. The story arc itself is funnily enough almost exactly the same though (bad guy threatens everyone, hero goes away for 5/6ths of the book questing, and returns to kick butt with a new sword). Kind of interesting to see the author improve with a second attempt.
