Rakkety Tam is a fantasy novel by Brian Jacques, published in 2004. It is the 17th book in the Redwall series.
When Gulo the Savage and his army of vermin sweep across the land, it's up to Rakkety Tam MacBurl and his friend Wild Doogy Plumm backed by one hundred hares from Salamandastron to stop the advance of the bloodthirsty wolverine and protect Redwall and Mossflower.
From a region known only as the Land of Ice and Snow emerges Gulo the Savage, a vicious wolverine in command of a horde of a hundred white vermin (foxes and ermine) who eat the flesh of their enemies. After murdering his father, Dramz, Gulo assumed control of his father's territory. However, only he who possess the Walking Stone may rule, and after his father's death, Gulo's brother, Askor, steals the stone and sails to Mossflower Woods. Gulo pursues his brother with the vermin under his command. Most notably was his Captain the white fox named Shard and his mate the vixen Freeta. Although Shard was the Captain of this horde, it is Freeta that held the real power, intelligence and sway.
With all those words you bring
Why do you say what you don't mean
To those people who don't care about one thing that you might need
And you just don't know
Your actions always shine the most
To those people who don't care if you end up alone
You need some time to sew
All those bridges that you burned
'Cause there's nothing left to bring
To someone who just won't learn
Have you made up your mind
How have you known what you decide
To those people who just think that you are telling lies
So I give up
I made it clear as it can be
To those people who don't care about one thing that you might need
You need some time to sew
All those bridges that you burned
'Cause there's nothing left to bring
To someone who just won't learn
