Alderheart, who started out as an interesting, somewhat insecure character in book one is just bland. As you can see by the two star rating, I have quite a few criticisms about the book.įirst off, the characters were kind of flat in this one. I am in my twenties, have been reading this series since I was 12, and have never been motivated enough to write a review until now. She dies a noble death, though! Erin Hunter lives up to her reputation, and the next book in this series is as good as the last! I doubt I’m the only one craving more of these books! I love the book! Almost everything is perfect in my opinion, but a cat dies, which I really wasn’t happy about.

They took ShadowClan’s and RiverClan’s territory! Do the Clans’ have what it takes to defeat the Kin? Throughout it all, Darktail’s Kin are making the Clans’ lives miserable. He is convinced “what you find in the dark” is Sk圜lan, and they will “clear the sky.” Also, a new vision reveals Sk圜lan’s location! But Alderheart’s visions start to change things for Twigpaw…Īlderheart continues to try to convince Bramblestar to look for Sk圜lan. Twigpaw is young and carefree, happy and excited to train to be a warrior. Violetpaw wants to stay to protect her friend, Needletail, who is the only friend she’s had since kithood. Violetpaw doubts her decision to join the Kin, the rouge pack of cats that took over ShadowClan territory. Please keep on working on those points and the series will live up to it's great potential.Īlderheart, Twigpaw, and Violetpaw’s adventures continue in Warriors: Shattered Sky. And I really enjoyed reading it in contrast to the older ones. I know that this review mainly contains critique in contrast to the 5 star rating but I am just comparing the book to the other ones of the same series. Now we can hopefully wait for the Dovewing- Tigerheart Tragedy after it was like 5 times mentioned and stressed by all the characters. Also wanted to hit my head against something hard when they let the kin escape 2 times instead of just killing them( I mean, the Erins wanted them to go the long way for the great BIG WOAAH battle at the end but it seems just so. Her death got like zero attention at all, meh. Needletail and Alderheart had potential but yeah, I guess we all have to suffer losses. Interesting plottwists, but it feels kinda set up, Onestar's story was interesting but really not planned realistic. Few fillers, more complex story and a really really dark atmosphere. The storyline developes unexpectedly good, I was already quite delighted by Dawn of the Clans and really liked the bit more complex characters. It's just overall a rather flat writing stile but for 10-15 years old reader probably suited. Also feeling really sad, that every former main character just shifts out of focus and starts sobbing characterless into the mass of the clan( there are a few exceptions I guess). No offence, I really like them but it's extraordinary boring seeing the same characters develope again and again to the same point. It feels like so many characters have the absolute same personality( Bramblestar/ Lionblaze/ Hawkwing or Leopardstar/ Squirrelflight/ Ivypool/ Needletail for example). I still don't like the characters being dull, dumb, stereotypic or replaceable but I accepted that a long time ago as given. The series is finally getting uphill again.
