Very strong book, and a great introduction to the series overall! The writing really draws readers in to this complex society of cats.

Where it all began. Still such a classic, relaxing and fun story that chilled little old me to the bone back in the day. I would die for Yellowfang and Ravenpaw.

I started reading this as a hint from a friend who liked to talk about this series. I wasn't expecting to think much of it, think I'd like it. But it surpassed my expectations and wow! I really enjoyed this read.

The characters are loveable, or hateable, and all have unique character to them. Some aren't mentioned as much as others, but you can understand the dynamics as you read further into the book.

There is violence, but nothing is in depth or spoken gore-y, after all, it's not a YA geared series. But it's emotional and does speak of prior and current injuries as it goes on. There's fighting, of course, but I think that's the pure nature of the premise.

It's easy to follow along and process, which is another plus.

Something that can be confusing is some of the terms, which I actually had to ask for help to understand them.
(Such as moons=months), so that's my only real itch about what I've read.

Overall? I really enjoyed reading it, and I'm surely going to go on with the series.

Jetzt habe ich als Erwachsene doch endlich mal ein Buch dieser Reihe gelesen. Ich kann gut verstehen, dass diese Buchreihe für so viele Kinder/Jugendliche absolut großartig ist.
Die Geschichte ist spannend und abenteuerlich und wirkt gleichzeitig sehr ernst durch die Strukturen der Clans und die Gewalt, die zwischen ihnen häufig herrscht. Ich wäre komplett eingesogen worden als junge Jugendliche, ich könnte wetten, ich hätte diese Reihe zu meiner persönlichen Obsession auf unbestimmte Zeit erkoren - und auch jetzt ließ sich das Ganze super schnell lesen und hat mich durchaus bei Laune gehalten. Ich werde mal schauen, ob ich die nächsten Teile vielleicht als Hörbücher weiterhöre.

i wasnt super into warriors as a kid even tho i did know of them and read a handful, so im treating this as a first time read so

why did this actually go so hard tho??????? like theres definitely a lot wrong with it but its still fun and fast paced (i read the whole book in one sitting on a low spoon day when i was exhausted) and its really easy to get into the story. firepaw definitely suffers from main character/chosen one syndrome but i still loved him.

theres a lot of bad shit politically - i saw another review calling it 'protofascist ideology' and i absolutely agree. the whole 'the clan is more important than you' thing has real gross implications both within shadowclan and thunderclan. firepaw not being allowed to even see his old friends anymore but the clan leader actively knowing and interacting with loner cats is real culty. most of the characters are also extremely flat and completely blur together cause there's nothing apart from name and physical appearance to differentiate them. ive seen a lot of people say the character names are hard to follow and yea i get it, they can definitely get confusing especially when you add in different clans having the same naming conventions. ik a lot of people also dont like the writing (like saying 'purred' and 'meowed' instead of 'said') but im attributing my love of the musical cats and the fanfiction ive read for said musical for my disregard of that lol

also feels like the author tried to force romantic feelings onto firepaw??? like he got a crush or smth on another character and it felt so forced and unnecessary. imo it just felt like firepaw was mostly interacting with male characters so the author was like 'oh dang lets make him crush on this female character for no reason to fix that' even tho theyre literally cats ya know.
