Summary: Marlfox is yet another entertaining book by Brain Jacques.
Comment: Marlfox is a wonderful book written by Brain Jacques who should get a newbery for one of his books. Marlfox is about the redwallers fighting against the "magic" marlfoxes. During the battle of the Marlfoxes and their troops and the redwallers, the Marlfoxes steal one of the Redwallers most prized possessions, the tapestry of Martin the Warrior (read Mossflower and Martin the Warrior for further details of this mouse warrior). One Marlfox flees from the battle with the tapestry and returns home, to castle Marl. Three young warriors run and chase the Marlfox to get the tapestry. But despite all the action, (if you've read all the other Redwall books, you'll get this statement) it seems like Brian Jacques skipped part of Redwall's vital history. Still, I recommend this book. If you like this book and can read 700-800 page books, read The Sword of Shannara.

Marlfox is a very interesting and different b type of book. This classic by Brian Jacques, was the most unusual to me since his other Redwall books. In this book the Marlfox, there is a young squirrel that lives in a beautiful town, when the marlfoxes aren't around. These marlfoxes steal and take for themselves, they move in groups, and they could be close to invisible with their blending in colors. These foxes are so stealth and sly, that you would never know they were there. The marlfoxes have powerful weapons and quick striking attacks to be feared anywhere. One day, the marlfoxes stole a tapestry of the legendary Martin the warrior from the abbey. This tapestry to the abbey was priceless; so four young warriors went on a mission to retrieve it. The hero's names were Dann, Song, Dippler, and Burble. These four heroes encounter danger, and make new friends as well on their journey to find the tapestry.
This book was very enjoyable to read. All the different characters had their each and different personalities. Each marlfox, shrew, mouse, otter, squirrel, and other woodland creature had it's own little creative trait. My favorite character of this book was a marlfox named Mokkan. Mokkan becomes the captain of the marlfoxes at the end of the book, and he is the last marlfox to survive. A chunk of Marlfoxes just died over time. Mokkan survives the last because he is the most slick, strong, and cunning out of all the marlfoxes. Mokkan's personality is very leader like and cocky. "Now he was a proper Marlfox once more, and everybeast knew that Marlfoxes were magic, invisible!"Pg 344 Mokkan wants to think himself as the master of his tribe.
Mokkan the marlfox isn't the only reason why I enjoy reading this book. I also really enjoy this book because of the description of the words. The author is very descriptive when he talks about the clothes and weapons of the warriors. When the characters are dinning, the food just jumps out at you, there are just smells of aroma everywhere. They're always eating honey flavored scones or a fruit dumpling. ""Any more o' that stew left, matey?" "
My least favorite part of this wonderful book is when Logalog dies. Logalog was in many other books as a general of the woodland creatures. Logalog always fought bravely and courageously. Logalog was in the book Mossflower, Salamandastron, The Long Patrol, and some other books. Logalog was always in some part where he was helping to fight off armies, or give directions to the lost. Marlfox is a wonderful book to read, I would recommend it to any young reader looking for adventure.

Summary: Marlfox
Comment: Marlfox is a rather good story, but it isn't one of Brian Jacques' best. Redwall has no leaders except Cregga Rose Eyes, who refuses to be an Abbess, and the cellarkeeper from The Long Patrol is still alive, Gurrbowl. How that is possible I do not know unless moles live forever. Also the adventuring part is quite boring and the White Ghost part is a bit ridiculous.
