Rating:  Summary: An insight into the driving forces of Redwall's Warrior... Review: This novel offers an engaging and believable background story to the Redwall series. Martin the Warrior has always been a fundamental part of the Redwall series. However, the Warrior mouse of Redwall has always remained something of an enigma to readers. Appearing as a spectre, or merely in dreams...how much information does that give the reader? Not much to draw on. Although "Mossflower" went some way to dispel this, it still wasn't enough. For me, "Martin The Warrior" changed that. "Martin The Warrior" gives us the long awaited background story of the Warrior mouse, and, in my opinion, is a fantastic backdrop for the other novels. "Martin The Warrior", for once, gives an insight into the driving forces of Martin's psyche, tells the tale of how he took up the mantle of Warrior...We see for once how Martin came to be what he was, read about events that shaped his life and destiny...This tale of Martin's past is captivating, gripping. We feel for the hero... More than worthy of the title "A Novel Of Redwall", "Martin The Warrior" is another fine example of Brian Jacques work. It has emotional content, adventure, excitement, a perfect plot...This is something definitely worth reading, either by the Redwall fan, thirsting for more, or just the casual reader. Rarely do I find such a good book, one that gives such insights into a character. "Martin The Warrior" turns the character of Martin alive and vivid...It's worth reading, even if just for that. It would most likely be redundant to further stress this point, but in closing, I would like to say, once again: This is a fine novel, a fantastic instalment in the Redwall series. I really, really, recommend it. But you've probably gathered that by now. :)
Rating:  Summary: It was an exciting and adventurous book Review: The book Martin The Warrior was very exciting and in some parts funny. I would recommend it to anybody who likes animal fiction. It always kept me going the whole time.
Rating:  Summary: Not bad, but not good either... Review: Martin the Warrior, the prequel to Redwall was kind of disapointing in a way. There was something missing in this book. If you are a rabid redwall fan, like me, then you would know. Don't start on this one. Try Redwall first.
Rating:  Summary: the best of the best Review: this is probably the best book i have ever read. if it wasn't for this book, i would have never gotten started on the redwall series. this is the best redwall book. none of the others just quite match up to martin the warrior that much
Rating:  Summary: An other winner by Jacques Review: Like all of Brian Jacques' books, Martin the Warrior will stay in the heart of readers for years to come. This book of Redwall begins with a mouse from Noonvale. She relates the tale of Redwall's warrior mouse to the inhabitance of the abby. The creatures of Redwall have always been protected by the spirit of Martin and they have a great respect for him, but they never knew what he did befor he came to Mossflower, it had always been a great mistery. The story of Martin's life contains times of joy as well as times of sorrow. Even though I am a sixteen year old male I am not ashamed to admit that tears were rolling from my eyes as I neared the end of the heart worming yet tragic story of Martin the Warrior

Rating:  Summary: My review of Martin the Warrior by Brian Jacues Review: I was a little unsure about this book before I sta
rted it, the whole book being all and only about the
anventures of animals such as mice, rabbits, hedge
hogs, badgers, etc.
But I am grateful that I stumbled across this book.
This book is the tale of young warrior mouse Martin. His struggles, courage, and personality kept me gl
ued to this book. Please do not be discouraged by
the length of this book, because it is so wonderfu
l and you probably won't even realize how much you
have a read in a short peroid of time due to the
detail and the beautifully written texture and
reality of this book. I highly reccommend this
book to all ages.
Rating:  Summary: Martin the Warrior is awesome!!! Review: Martin the Warrior is about how a mouse named Martin, came to be Redwall Abbey's greatest hero.
Marint the Warrior is the first book in the series, and also the best that I've read.
I strongly recommend Martin the Warrior to anyone who loves action, adventure and fantasy. I give Martin the Warrior a hearty 10!
Rating:  Summary: This Review needs no introduction: Review: The Best book I have ever read
Rating:  Summary: The action packed prequel to Mossflower Review: Martin the Warrior is the first book chronologically in the Redwall series. It opens with Martin as a slave to an evil Stoat Warlord named Badrang. Martin, while chained to a stake in a storm vows to kill Badrang. After Martin escapes he has many adventures with his friends Rose (a mouse), Grumm (a mole), and Pallum (a hedgehog and my personal favorite). Together they have many adventures, encounters with many bizare animals, and hardships. This book is saved from mediocrity by it's colorful characters, furios battles, and humerous moments. It is a worthy prequel to Mossflower and a great addition to the Redwall series, but it is still not my favorite (see my review of Mossflower)
