I read this book when I was much younger. It deals with a stubborn mouse that is captured and enslaved by a stoat tyrant and his legion of sea rats. Most of the book I recall deals more with the various bands of characters coming across many adventures and eating… lots and lots of eating. However, Martin breaks free from the tyrant and eventually gains his revenge over his forced servitude and breaking the nearby land of the despot’s grasp. However, in the final battle his love is slain by the tyrant … the land, although free and now in harmony is tainted by the memories of his lost love. He can never know peace and must seek out new adventures in order not only help others who are “lost” or in peril but to refind himself.
