User blog:LordTBT/News:Redwall Collectors Community: The Redwall Trilogy
It's one of those things that's not considered very often, but a simple piece of cardboard is the modest home that shelters the Redwall Trilogy.
After what can be considered the overnight success story of Redwall in 1986, Brian Jacques got to work on developing the story into a trilogy. "Trilogy" was used to describe what would be arriving next as early as 1988.
Of course, we know the stories kept coming and coming later, however by design, it was intended to be Redwall, its prequel Mossflower, and its sequel Mattimeo.
On October 17, 1991, those initial three books were formally packaged together by the Arrow Books Limited imprint of Red Fox as The Redwall Trilogy, at a £12.99 price point in the UK.
It consists of all three books as paperbacks, featuring Pete Lyon's original cover artwork.
While the paperbacks can be found out there, it's this cardboard slipcase that has become quite rare. And it makes sense - if you're purchasing more and more Redwall books, why would you need the box any more?
