Taggerung

In the fourteenth Redwall adventure by Brian Jacques, the clan of Sawney Rath kidnaps one of Redwall's own — a baby otter whom they believe is destined to become their Taggerung: the warrior hero of ancient legend. But as the young Taggerung grows, he rebels against his destiny and goes off in search of the place he was born — a home he can barely remember. As the young otter journeys to distant lands, a member of Sawney's clan is close on his heels, out to destroy the deserter and claim for his own the title of Taggerung. With a new friend, a feisty little mouse named Nimbalo, the rugged warrior staves off the avenging vermin, but can he find his way back to Redwall and to the family from whom he was separated so long ago?
