(I've only read 4 so I'm sure they will get even better than this!) It was by far the best Warriors book I've read. I rate this 5 stars because it was thrilling and I never wanted to put it down. Erin Hunter just had to leave us all hanging, didn't she?

That ending, I finished this at about 12:30 am last night (I'm writing my review late I know, I've been busy today.) and I already wanted to pick up book 5 and read on about Tigerclaw and the gathering. MY HEART, WHY WOULD YOU DO THIS TO ME? I love Yellowfang, I am honestly devastated she died, I couldn't stop crying :( Then they found her alive and I was so happy and I felt like crying with joy but then, then, she did die. I knew she wasn't going to live and my heart was beating so fast as I read on. I knew it was going to happen as she is on the cover with the fire behind her. This book was heartbreaking, I was thoroughly enjoying it until Yellowfang wanted to help Fireheart rescue the elders and Bramblekit. That was my first reaction to the ending of the book.ĭo not read past here if you don't want to spoil the book for yourself. A few days later, Fireheart takes ThunderClan to a Gathering (a night when all four Clans meet to share news) and discovers that his old enemy, Tigerclaw is now the leader of ShadowClan.'WHAT NO ? THIS CANT BE HAPPENING ? WHY ? I'M SO ANGRY !!!!' ThunderClan takes shelter in RiverClan territory for a while, before returning to their own territory, to find it burnt and ruined. However, Yellowfang, an old friend of Fireheart's, and several old cats die in the fire. His early warning meant that most of the Clan could escape in time. Later on, Fireheart realizes ThunderClan territory is on fire, and he warns the Clan.

Ravenpaw comes to tell Fireheart where Cloudpaw is, and so he, Fireheart, and another cat called Sandstorm go to rescue Cloudpaw. He eventually tries to beg for food from humans, which results in him being captured and taken away.Ī cat named Ravenpaw finds Cloudpaw in a human house far away from the Clans. Cloudpaw, having been born outside of the Clans, fails to follow the rules that the Clans live by, which gets him into trouble. He also has to train his troublesome apprentice, Cloudpaw. The cats that live in these Clans call themselves warriors.įireheart, now second in command to Bluestar, the leader of ThunderClan, must deal with Bluestar's failing mental state, as well as the rest of the Clan's needs.
