THe prologue (if the book has one) is always either a poem that kind of references something important in the book say Marlfox, or some old guy from the story telling someone or a group about what happened, as in Salamandastron or the Bellmaker. The epilogue is either a extract from some guy's recording about what happened and how all these new characters are getting along, or a little wrapper-upper if someone is telling other heast the story.
