Mattimeo | comment |
After eight seasons of peace in Mossflower, a sinister masked fox plots to steal something precious to the woodlanders of Redwall Abbey: their children.Mattimeo is the third book in the Redwall series, though chronologically, it follows Redwall and precedes Pearls of Lutra. It was published in 1989 (1990 in the US). It was adapted into the second season of the animated Redwall TV series in 2000 and ran for 13 episodes. | |

The Artifact | |
Mattimeo / int_13d7a65e | comment |
The Artifact: Basil Stag Hare's name. Redwall ostensibly took place in the real world, and Basil often went on about how impressive and majestic stags were - it's why he chose his name. However, by the time of Mattimeo, Brian Jacques had changed the setting to remove the real world and most larger animals, and so stags no longer even existed outside Basil's name. | |

Would Hurt a Child | |
Mattimeo / int_479d4e5a | comment |
Would Hurt a Child: Slagar outright threatens to cripple and leave for dead any slave that tries to escape him. At one point, one of his band mentions "finishing off" one slave who was too weak to continue moving. It's also mentioned that none of the non-Redwaller slaves would have had the nerve to try and escape because they'd seen what Slagar did to slaves that tried it. General Ironbeak is also not above threatening to toss a toddler off of a roof. His rooks massacre the baby sparrows left behind by the rest on moving in. None is actually harmed on-page though. | |

Throwing Your Sword Always Works: Log-A-Log throws his short sword at Stonefleck, killing the rat leader. Partially justified in that he doesn't toss it so it spins over and over again but instead throws it like a spear, which is the only way to really have any accuracy when throwing a sword. | |

What Happened to the Mouse?: The Sparra are never mentioned after this book despite the ending stating the few survivors have begun to rebuild their numbers in the loft.

Mattimeo / int_c3bc970f | comment |
Seers: Mangiz the crow can predict the future with startling accuracy. However, once they arrive at Redwall, Martin starts to block his visions, causing Ironbeak to become short-tempered with him as they no longer have an edge over their enemies. | |

Mattimeo / int_cc7d7f75 | comment |
Easy Come, Easy Go: When Slagar delivers the Redwall kids to Malkariss, Malkariss promotes him to Warlord and promises to build him a stone fortress aboveground. A minute later the heroes show up, and Malkariss threatens to "deal with him" after he has "dealt" with the intruders. | |

Redshirt Army | |
Mattimeo / int_ccf46587 | comment |
Red Shirt Army: The Guosim seem to have unlimited numbers despite losing a great number to Stonefleck's army. There's still enough of them to battle with the forces of Malkariss, who seem to have forces without end. Subverted with the Sparra. There's implied to be hundreds of birds under Warbeak's command that engage Stonefleck and his army to rescue her friends but all but five of them are massacred. | |

Clever Crows: While Ironbeak and his band are certainly fiendish, they are also very clever, outwitting the Redwallers at every turn to the point of almost completely beating them. | |

Mattimeo / int_cea7fc1 | comment |
Bottomless Pits: There's a chasm south of a desert that's so deep, there's no known bottom. Slagar tries to thwart the pursuers by cutting the bridge down. Luckily, the pursuers had made friends with an owl, who's able to fly down to where the bridge got hung on a rock and haul it back up. | |

From Nobody to Nightmare: Chickenhound may have been a thoroughly unpleasant character and an accidental murderer, but once he became Slagar he spread misery all over the country, kidnapping all the children he could and murdering anyone he could murder conveniently. | |

Hoarding the Profits | |
Mattimeo / int_e861f8b9 | comment |
Hoarding the Profits: Slagar the Cruel elevates this to a business model — recruit a crew of slavers, trap some children, sell them to the Kingdom of Malkariss, manipulate the crew into killing each other so he can keep all the profits, rinse and repeat. | |

Mattimeo / int_e9e35e8f | comment |
Exact Words: After Wedgeback carelessly dropping his dagger allows the children to temporarily escape, Slagar expresses disappointment later and says he would have to "let him go". Wedgeback begs while repeating those words, to which the fox obliges. By the time the poor stoat realizes what his boss meant, he is dropped off a mountaintop to his death. | |

Jerkass: Halftail the stoat is the nastiest of Slagar's slavers, to the point that even the other slavers don't like him much. Threeclaws, a weasel and Slagar's second-in-command, is also considered by the slaves to be the second-worst of the slavers. | |

Battle Bolas | |
Mattimeo / int_f6800554 | comment |
Battle Bolas: Slagar the Cruel, The Heavy of the book, uses a bolas as his weapon. He uses it both to attack and to intimidate. In the Animated Adaptation, he throws it at a wooden chair, shattering the chair to splinters, just to demonstrate what will happen to his slaves if they don't obey him. He later uses it to attempt a stealth kill on Matthias, though he fails. Subverted in that he's a Dirty Coward, only using his bolas in sneak attacks and running away from any open fights. | |

Mattimeo / int_f9c3ecc6 | comment |
Series Fauxnale: Redwall, Mossflower, and Mattimeo make up a full trilogy, each one focusing on one of the mouse warriors: Matthias, Martin, and then Mattimeo. At the end of Mattimeo, Matti has a baby mouse born he names Martin II, bringing everything full cycle and wrapping up all the major plot lines found in the three books. The series would then continue on two years later as Mariel of Redwall came out, with minor questions and plot lines brought up in the first three that would be continued over the next four books. | |
