Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

The powerful second book in this epic series continues the saga of the ferocious Thunderclan. Firepaw has been promoted, and is now Fireheart, a full-fledged warrior cat — but trouble still lurks in the forest. The balance of power between the clans remains fragile, and a fierce battle seems inevitable. In the midst of this turmoil, Fireheart must confront new questions of loyalty and identity, as he faces the possibility of betrayal from within his own clan.

Review:

"Characters remain true to their feline natures, adding to the plausibility of events in this tension-filled story. Readers will be happy to learn that another episode is in the works." Booklist

Review:

"[A] fast-paced animal adventure....Recommend this series to fans of animal fantasies such as Redwall and Dark Portal." VOYA

Review:

"Hunter ratchets up the tension....With enough backstory for newcomers to find their way, established fans will be on edge for the next title." Kirkus Reviews

Review:

"The characterizations of the animals are somewhat flat, although it is possible to tell them apart, and the plot's twists and turns seem mapped out and predictable." School Library Journal

Review:

"The story is flat, repetitious, much too long, and in the end unsatisfying except perhaps to devoted cat lovers or readers who revel in invented worlds." Children's Literature

Synopsis:

Fireheart is a ThunderClan warrior cat now, but danger still lurks in the forest — and possibly closer than he thinks. With the chill of winter setting in, the cats of rival RiverClan are growing restless, while WindClan is weak and facing threats from all sides.

As tensions build to an explosive climax, Fireheart faces not only imminent battle, but betrayal from within his own Clan.

About the Author

Erin Hunter is inspired by a love of cats and a fascination with the ferocity of the natural world. As well as having a great respect for nature in all its forms, Erin enjoys creating rich mythical explanations for animal behavior, shaped by her interest in astrology and standing stones.

This book is very good! The series is great for any cat lover. The dialogue uses cat language; hissed, growled, purred instead of using words like said angrily, talked, etc. You are dropped into a world of four cat clans in the forest. Their rivalries over territories and customs. It is written in the eyes of Fireheart a Thunder Clan warrior.The fighting scenes are very descriptive. I hate it when the fights scenes do not conclude with the chapter. I HAVE TO read more....
