The Silver Horn

I am a [person]who loves to read. This book has lots of adventure and detail. It has sword fighting with animals who seem very real. The book ends on a cliffhanger and it's impossible to resist buying the second one.

The Silver Horn is the first installment in the new, semi-promising Eaglesmount Triogy. The book tells the story of Vair, a young pine martin. He and his father decide to travel to the annual Watersmeet Fair, in a nearby village. However, the night before they leave, dangerous vermin kill his father, and take the rodent captive. After visiting the mysterious Lord Owl, who gives the band an assignment, they travel to Watersmeet. While there, the vermin begin their search for a mysterious silver horn, which the Lord Owl wishes to have. When Vair discovers who has the horn, he must protect them-and save the whole village of Watersmeet from the destruction of his captives.While well-written overall, this book has its flaws. For instance, many of the characters run together, as their names are all similar. Also, the plot, while well-concieved, is extremely reminiscent of the Redwall books by Brian Jacques. Nevertheless, The Silver Horn will captivate younger Redwall fans, as well as those who relish animal fantasy, with its action and adventure!
