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

Once you get past the fact that these are cats, and you acknowledge that it’s a kids book, then this is a great narrative! The nostalgia helps too.

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.

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 decided to re-read these books out of a sense of nostalgia and because I know more have been written since the last one I read and I’m curious about how the series has grown. So when I found a group of people online reading through them, I decided it was time.
Even after all these years, I’m so invested in these cats’ drama. Why is there so much drama!?
These books are entertaining, funny, sometimes a little too graphic for their target audience, and occasionally emotional. In other words; they’re a fun time. 
These are great books to read in between heavier books as a little palate cleanser. I can’t wait to continue the series.

Rereading these for the first time in like >10 years and the first book knocks it out of the park! I totally remember why I used to play as Warrior Cats all the time when I was a kid. 
The worldbuilding is so fun and inspiring, and it’s your classic “kid enters new culture and is trained to be a warrior and struggles through hardship to find community and becomes a part of something greater than himself” story, but it’s done really well. 
It’s a bit brutal at times and cats kill each other left and right, but it somehow also has that childlike wonder and play that’s so inspiring. 
Can’t wait to continue with the well-written first series and then revisit how things completely go off the rails after that!
