I found a copy of Salamandastron that I didn't know I had. On page 80 now.
 
That's one of the few of the series that I've read.
Good times.
 
I already have two questions about it :D
 
Ask away.
 
Though I really should post that Lusiads question I've been promising myself
 
Maybe I'll actually be able to answer.

Also, I should do homework
Decisions, decisions
 
Though it's been at least a few years since I've read it.
Definitely skip the homework.
I'll write you a letter of excuse.
 
Technically it's not homework, but English teacher put up 8 questions and said we will have to write short essays on 3 of them, so I am preparing lines of argument.
 
To Whom It May Concern:

Please excuse bobble's lack of homework. In the course of a grand discussion about the important things in life, it was decided that homework ranks well below hanging out on Stack Exchange, and virtually everything else as well.

Please feel free to reach out to me with any further questions.

Cordially yours,
Alex

@Tsundoku thanks! Got it as well as a few other open access books from that site (e.g., Shakespeare and the Fall of the Roman Republic but Patrick Gray). The site says that Shakespeare's History Plays, also by Neema Parvini, is available for download, but when I click the link it just gets me another copy of Shakespeare's Moral Compass. 🤷🏽‍♂️

@bobble Salamandastron is probably the one I know least (except the last 3 that I haven't read) of the whole Redwall series. I found them one by one to read and consume, and later reread lots of them, and for a long time Salamandastron was the only one I hadn't read. At some point I filled that gap in my read list by finding it in a second-hand bookshop.

Q: What did yellow banners in Roderick Usher Rhapsody symbolize?

SNRWhat did yellow banners in Roderick Usher Rhapsody symbolize? In the greenest of our valleys, by good Angels tenanted, Once a stately palace -- Radiant palace-- reared its head, In the monarch Thought's dominion-- It stood there! Never seraph spread a pinion Over a fabric half so fair. Banners...

@verbose Did you create an account? I can't figure out a way of getting those open access books without creating one.

@Randal'Thor the Redwall books in my house were originally my dad's, but I stole them downstairs for my use. Haven't managed that trick with his Ender or Pern novels yet, alas.

@bobble Since it is about the book's "lesson" about power, the tag seems the better fit.
