Into the Wild ; "For generations, four Clans of wild cats have shared the forest according to the laws laid down by their warrior ancestors. But the ThunderClan cats are in grave danger, and the sinister ShadowClan grows stronger every day. Noble warriors are dying-- and some deaths are more mysterious than others. In the midst of this turmoil appears an ordinary house cat named Rusty . . . who may turn out to be the bravest warrior of them all." -If you haven't done yourself the favor of checking out Warriors, please do.Warriors is a world full of fictional cats (Literally cats..) that are separated into 4 clans, originally based on their skillsets, but later on bloodlines. Thunderclan, Riverclan, Windclan, and Shadowclan all compete for territory and prey. The clan cats are bound to morality by the Warrior Code, a list of 15 commandments handed down to guide them. They are guided by Starclan, a coucil of heavenly angelic cats. Clans are headed by one leader, and his/her deputy (a right hand man), with Warriors that care for and protect the clan.

Warriors train apprentices, young cats that will eventually be responsible enough to become Warriors themselves. Does Costco Sell Toilet Seat CoversQueens are pregnant and nursing female warriors that care for the clan's youth. Repair Vertical Blinds Won'T OpenElders are former Warriors who survived long enough to retire. Sa Registered Pitbull Puppies For SaleEach clan has 1-3 medicine cats, nurse-like cats who are skilled in healing, and communicating with Starclan (much like a monk or priest). The series is rather long, and drags itself out over 6 arcs, each dealing with a different generation of cats. The first, second, third, and origin arcs are worth reading with the corresponding Super Editions. Most hardcore fans would recommend staying away from The Power of Three, Omen of the Stars, and The Apprentices Quest's, as the writing seemed to get lazy later in the series.

Though the books are marketed toward kids, I would recommend them for fantasy readers, regardless of age. The language of the story is deceptively simple, but the plot itself is what I enjoyed. The themes of the story are presented in an appropriate, yet real way. The books don't shy away from talking about deeper concepts, and ideas of life, death, grief, depression, success, anger, desire, and ambition run deep within the storyline. The series has a pretty big fandom, and it's not uncommon to see older teens and young adults that are open fans. Warriors definitely isn't a "kids" series. It straddles the line of fantasy, and YA fiction. Mature themes are in the books, but are handled in an appropriate way. The basis of the plot is simple, but there are quite a few engaging twists and deaths. If you like fantasy, I would definitely recommend.The Warriors series is written by Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Tui Sutherland Victoria Holmes, and the two lesser known(presumably publishers or editors) Gillian Philip, and Inbali Iserles.

These six write under the name Erin Hunter. It follows the four clans known as Thunderclan, Shadowclan, Riverclan, and  Windclan, with Thunderclan being the one followed throughout the first four arcs, then will probably follow it again in the sixth. These arcs are named as follows: The Prophecies Begin, The New Prophecy, The Power of Three, Omen of The Stars, and Vision of Shadows. The fifth, Dawn of the Clans, follows the beginnings of the five original clans-Thunderclan, Riverclan, Windclan, Shadowclan, and Starclan- as they try to stake a living in the forest the first arc takes place in, as well as some of the second arc. The series contains a fair share of romance, action, and other categories in order to be slightly family friendly. However is contains the occasional depiction of violence and slight gore(at least twice an arc and some detailed to the point of soft-core gorn) so not for anyone under ten for sure. The series has been a Best Selling series ever since conception, and I highly recommend it if you want a series that can be both fun and sad.

Just avoid the M-rated fanfictions altogether. Just leave lemons alone. Almost all of them are horribly written and contains graphic depictions of mating between two characters as well as language that does not fit in the series. Hope you are interested and are considering reading them after reading this. We need more people in the fandom to take over the worl-I mean whaaaaa?Warriors is a series of juvenile fantasy novels published by HarperCollins; it is written by authors Kate Cary, Cherith Baldry, Tui Sutherland, with the plot developed by editor Victoria Holmes, who collectively use the pseudonym Erin Hunter. It is a series well worth reading by any age levels, and hits upon some key points that help a young person develop. Also it's a really good series. I would advise reading every book with the author Erin Hunter whether it's from the Warriors series or not.Disclamier: I do not own Warriors.Leader: Redstar- A large reddish-orange catDeputy: Lionclaw- A light brown tomMedicine cat: Fallingwater- A small blue-silver she-cat.

Ravenclaw- A large black tomDitalionclaw- A brown striped cat.Silverheart- Medium silver cat with white paws.Dawncloud- A light ginger cat.Sorrelclaw- A dark brown cat.Silverheart heard a mouse walking in the undergrowth a few tail lengths away. She dropped into a hunting crouch and started stalking toward it. At the perfect moment she pounced and landed mere inched away. She grabbed the mouse and dealt the killing bite before it could escape. She then noticed how many leaves had been disturbed by her attack. Laying a few fowlengths away was a silver lump.Silverheart went to go see what it was. It was a kit. It was breathing shallowly. It didn't smell like any of the clans. She guessed it had been abandoned. "Silverheart" she heard Ravenclaw call. "I'm behind the big tree" she called to her mate. "What are you doing?" he asked as he hurried to join her. "I found a kit" she said, picking the small kit up by the scruff gently. "It was just laying there abandoned" Silverheart said. "We have to take it to the camp."

They quickly returned to the camp. Silverheart hurried to Redstar's den as fast as she could, ignoring the questioning stares. "Redstar!" she said as she skidded to a stop next to him, Ravenclaw close behind. "I found a kit!" she exclaimed. Redstar asked as he awoke, standing up sleeping. "I found a kit next to the big tree, she must have been abandoned. Can she stay with us? I can take care of her" Silverheart said, all in one breath. Redstar looked at the kit. "She's not from any of the other clans, and she doesn't smell like kittypet, she must be rouge's kit." So what if she is?" "I can raise her as my own" she added. "Silverheart, what if her mother attacks the camp trying to look for her?" Redstar said logically " She won't" Silverheart said. " Remember the rogue that Thunderclan said they killed at the gathering last night, after she tried to invade their nursery" Silverheart said ' that was most likely her mother". We have to help her, we can't just leave her to die" she said, exasperated.

They set in silence for several moments. It seemed like an eternity to Silverheart. " You can keep her" Redstar finally said. Then he sat down and flicked his tail to dismiss them.As they left the leader's den, Ravenclaw turned to Silverheart. " Are your sure your ready?" he asked softly. Silverheart had miscarried her own kits and few days before. " Yes" she said determined. "I have the milk" she added. "If you're sure" Ravenclaw said, licking her ear. "I am" she replied as she carried the kit to the nursery.Ravenclaw quickly made them a bed. The kit fell asleep soon after the medicine cat, Fallingwater has bought her herbs. The kits breathing gradually steadied. Cats were constantly coming in and out of a nursery trying to see the kit. Fallingwater quickly made them leave telling them the kit needed her sleep. Silverheart was sure there was plenty of gossip going around about the rogue kit. She hoped the other cats didn't judge her based on her parentage, thorough it seemed some already where.

She heard whispers of how " this rogue kit could grow up to destroy the clan". She tried to ignore those cats and focus on the new kit."We have to name her" Silverheart said to Ravenclaw later that night.. " Yes, we do" he agreed. "Angelkit" Silverheart said after thinking for awhile. "Her name is Angelkit". "Good Name' Ravenclaw said licking the sleeping kit. " Now get some sleep, you must be exhausted." " Yes" Fallingwater nodded in agreement. " I'll be back to check on Angelkit tomorrow" she said leaving the nursery.Fallingwater returned to her den after caring for Angelkit. She quickly fell asleep.She was in the forest by the edge of Riverclan's territory. She knew she was dreaming. A starry cat come down form Silverpelt and walked toward her. "Falligwater" the cat said. "Dangers are to come. Traitors lurk behind every corner. An Angel will arise to save you". The starry cat then disappeared and Fallingwater awoke. She quickly went to go find Redstar. The rogue kit was Riverclan's only hope it seemed.
