This book is super good and I suggest you read it to start this amazing series. But *WARNING lots of cats do die.
*WARNING! THERE MAY BE SPOILERS IN THIS REVIEW! PROCEED WITH CAUTION!* This is such an exciting book! So this book follows a house cat named Rusty that decides to go into the woods one day and he discovers some clan cats who are part of the ThunderClan. They ask him to join their clan because he is a strong cat and they do not have that many warriors right now. After some careful consideration he leaves his Twolegs(humans) to join them. When he first enters the clan, he gets made fun of for being a kittypet(a human's pet). He attacks the main cat who was teasing him and almost gets strangled by his collar. Luckily, it snaps before he suffocates and he wins over the other cat. He puts his past behind him when he is officially accepted as an apprentice. He gains the new name Firepaw, in honor of his fire colored fur. The majority of the rest of the book follows him on his adventures as an apprentice to ThunderClan. Life in the clan is a lot different than what he grew up with, but he finds it a lot more exciting, and so do I! There are a lot of weird terms that the cats use, but if you read carefully, you should be able to connect them with something in real life. I love this book because it is always exciting and hard to put down! I am now super excited to read the next book!!!(and the next and the next and the next!!!)!!! I hope they are all as exciting as this one!! (BTW the end is a HUGE cliff hanger! Be prepared to read the next book!)
I decided to read this book because I've seen it almost everywhere. This book was very exciting! A real page turner. There's many characters in the story but, once you read it, you'll remember every ones names. There are many different clans, ranks, and felines in the story.
I LOVE the Warriors series by Erin Hunter (I also consider myself a clan leader)! I recommend this book if you enjoy animal fantasy and lots of action. When reading this series, be prepared for depressing parts. The Warriors series completely changed my life, and it'll do the same for you!
all of her books are great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this book is very interesting i recommend it to any cat love that wonders what the family cat thinks of
Well I've read the actual books of the series I think others should too. Think of this as a recommendation from me. Read the series and her other series, survivors. Reading is awesome!!! Oh Twolegs is humans in warrior's. Read all of the warrior's series!
I relly love this book! Even though it isn't our fandom anymore... Oh wait it is!!!!! I am already at chapter 5 or 6
