MARLFOX
A villainous new presence is a-prowl
in Mossflower Woods: the Marlfoxes.
And when they ruthlessly steal the most
precious treasure of all, the tapestry of
Martin the Warrior, it takes the children
of warrior squirrels to follow in their
fathers’ heroic footsteps to recover it…“
Marlfox is a rollicking tale of bravery and
honor and derring-do; much laughter, a
few tears, lots of love, feasting, reunions,
and self-discovery, all brought vividly to
life with colorful detail and lively characterizations.”

characters.”

MOSSFLOWER
“Right from the start of this rousingly
old-fashioned prequel to Redwall readers
will submerge themselves in the culture
of the woodlanders and their council, the
Corim, against the wicked Kotir…Martin’s
heroics pale in comparison to the
acts of his fellow-fighters, so colorful are
their escapades.”

OUTCAST OF REDWALL
“Jacques casts his latest Redwall yarn in
the form of grand exploits related by an
oldster to some young ‘uns. This time
the ‘mighty saga’ concerns a badger
lord known as Sunflash the Mace and
his mortal enemy, a ferret warlord called
Swartt Sixclaw. As usual, the cast—both
the truly good and the truly evil—is
large, but the major characters are so
well fleshed out that readers become intimately
involved in their adventures…Another
rousing saga for the series’ many
fans.” —Booklist

PEARLS OF LUTRA
The Tears of All Oceans are missing. Six
magnificent rose-colored pearls, which
inspire passion and greed in all who see
them, have been stolen and passed from
hand to hand, leaving a cryptic trail of
death and deception in their wake. And
now Ublaz Mad Eyes, the evil emperor
of a tropical isle, is determined to let no
one stand in the way of his desperate
attempt to claim the pearls as his own.
“With several strong female characters,
fewer battles, and more mystery—as well
as the usual complement of humorous
sidekicks and mouthwatering feasts—this
is a victory for Redwall.”
