4.5 stars. Another winner in Redwall! These books are such a great adventure every time, I really look forward to them. I loved the Marlfox clan as villains, they were wily, treacherous, and intelligent.
This was a bit away from the standard Redwall format, and I would have preferred more Redwall history via riddle, but this was still interesting, particularly the siege of Redwall. It was reminiscent of the first book in the best possible way.
I really loved the heroes' quest, and the friends (and foes) they met along the way!
This book is great for all fans of Redwall, fantasy, or those looking for a great adventure read. These books of are the epitome of adventurous reading!

While all of the Redwall books are somewhat formulaic, this one specifically seems to follow ALL the tropes of a RW story which makes it a good, not great addition to the RW compendium. I do enjoy the main trio of characters plus the Marlfoxes are rather unique villains for this universe, but it definitely wouldn't be in my Top 10 of RW novels. I decided to re-read it after about 20 years since my first read because I found it in my childhood bookshelf, still love the world of Redwall and would love to see these books adapted into an animated series or animated films.

3.5 stars / I've always loved these, and the conclusion where everyone returned to the Abbey so it wasn't so lonely anymore was great, but the characters are not as vivid as they are in other installments. Still a great story true to Jacques form.

A lot more on-page murder than I was expecting, lol.
Marlfox

page 200 out of 386
The book Marlfox is a book in the Redwall series where Redwall is threatened by a group of villainous foxes called Marlfoxes. In the story they have to go to war with the Marlfoxes and in the end fight off their evil mother queen Silth.
I have not finished this book but so far I give it a 5 star rating because of the suspense and plot twist. My favorite part so far is when the baby moles where trying to bake a pie by sitting in the oven. I like this scene because it is funny. I recommend this book to anyone who likes adventure and fantasy.

I've owned this book forever but I don't remember as much what this one was about. Kudos to Jacques though for going for more than just regular foxes and adding an air of almost-magic into it.
My favorite part of these books is often the food. Anyone else get hungry reading these?
