The book size look like they are more suited for Adults or Y A... I bought my copy in the Adult section.

They are definitely (at least the Redwall series) written for children or young, young adults. However, I didn't discover them until my 20's and I liked all the ones I read.

I've read the Redwalls and they're definitely for a younger audience.
