About the author

Erin Hunter is the pseudonym of five people: Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Tui T. Sutherland, Gillian Philip, and Inbali Iserles, as well as editor Victoria Holmes. Together, they write the Warriors series as well as the Seekers and Survivors series. Erin Hunter is working on a new series now called Bravelands.

Reviews

[Emmaline LaRuffa]

Honestly never thought I’d be crying so much for a bunch of fictional cats, yet here I am

[Ak Ballard]

My favorite arc in the whole series. Will be rereading

Quick and easy read. Lots of small mistakes throughout the series, but that is to expect with quick releases. I read these books in Norwegian, so I suppose there were even more mistakes than in the original language. Definitively childrens books, but engaging enough for a grownup as well. Plowed through the whole series in a couple of months.

[Pixel Cat]

Overall I really enjoyed this arc. I wish there had been more focus on the development of the warrior code and star clan than there was. I also think it would have been nice to spend some more time in the mountains before beginning the journey, to explore truly the relationship dynamics and personalities that were there before the tribe split up.

Gray Wing is one of the best W.C. characters ive seen. Hes so fucking complex and inspiring. He goes through the most interesting shit aswell. 10 outta ten, love this series

[Amelia Huffer]

Best warrior cats arc... I have no words

[Maisy]

I’ve been an avid reader of WC for years, since a child, and I often come back to reread the books to pick up on any lost features that a younger me would’ve missed.

Often, the Warriors books don’t have much re-readability, but to me DoTC contains so much more than its surface; knowing the end result of this series doesn’t mean that the interim is spoiled, and infact any WC fan knows how DoTC ends.

But the story that is told before and between that period is one of peril, loss and absolute heartbreak.
This series in particular focuses on the arduous lifestyle these characters face, and gives excellent rise as to why in the future, there are certain rules to life. The events shown in these books allow perfectly a reader to empathise and relate to the fear of loss, and sympathise with even the most cruel of characters.

Of course, any Warriors book is not complete without it’s villain, and let me tell you that the foe in these books is often life itself. That, added with the detailed character development, makes for an entertaining and captivating storyline with true feelings of sorrow and woe for the characters that you grow to love.

And the end. Boy! It’s unlike any other Warrior’s book: if you like WC’s but are sick of the same old rhetoric, DoTC’s is a definite must-read, and it may just reignite some of that passion for this old, childhood series.

I felt like the last book was more dramatic then I'm used to. Also, I thought the clans were going to be named by the leaders themselves or even Star Clan. It was nice that it was Gray Wing & the kits that named them all. I was so happy to see Gray Wing also have kits of his own & have a mate. I was very sad to see him pass on but hope I get to see him more in Star Clan in future books. I also thought I'd get to learn of Thunder's kits but I guess that is in other books.

[Akasha Luies Wichman]

Best books ever!!!

[Kristin Gettman]

interesting info about how the cat clans came to be and its a well written story that connects to the normal series as well

[Fat Cat]

I love this series it warms my heart to see Gry wing get a mate and kits of his own but then my hreat breaks when he died.

[Haley -]

I loved this books because it was so perfectly detailed in my mind of what the situation was. There was drama,pain, and emotion.

[Maya]

It was an interesting prequal, I enjoyed reading the origin story of how the clans came to be. Some of the characters tho drove me nuts

[Teddy]

It wasn't perfect, but definetly ALMOST perfect.

[thebookishcutie]

This was so amazing! I'm such a WC fan!! I totally DID NOT think that Star Flower was One Eye's daughter! I thought maybe she was a spirit cat in disguise! Way to go Erin Hunter!

[LizzieM]

I have to admit that after reading Omen of the Stars and part of this series, I kind of thought I had outgrown them. After a few years, I decided to "go back down that rabbit hole" as I like to say, and I do NOT regret it! I absolutely loved seeing how the Clans came to be.

[Old Mint]

This series is one of my favourite out of the six. I particularly enjoyed how the clans did not get along as it added more depth into the series.

[Alex]

Definitely the best arc, wish it wasn't so underrated
