G!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I'm just...shocked. This book has left me literally SPEECHLESS. GAAH!!! It's DEFINITELY the BEST one out of ALL the warriors series so far. AAGGH!!!!!! ITS SOO EXCITING AND SUSPENSEFUL AND FULL OF MYSTERY AND THRILL AND MURDER AND SHOCK!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!! I couldn't put it down, and during the last scenes, my heart was thumping crazily in my chest, and I was aware of the blood roaring past my ears, and I felt like I was experiencing what was going on. OMG!!!!!!! **SPOILERS BELOW** OMG!!!!! I KNEW IT ALL ALONG!!!!! From the very first book of the Power of Three, I KNEW that the three kits weren't Squirrelflight's!! I PREDICTED IT!! AND I WAS RIGHT!!!! OMG!!! Well, I thought that just Jayfeather and possibly Hollyleaf were, I didn't think Lionblaze wasn't Squirrelflight's too. BUT STILL!!! OMG!!! It annoys me that we didn't find out WHO their REAL mother is, since I want to confirm my suspicion of Leafpool and Crowfeather being their real parents!! OMG!! AND I KNEW THAT ASHFUR WAS THE ONE WHO HELPED HAWKFROST!!! I KNEW THAT HE WAS THE ONE WHO LED FIRESTAR TO THE TRAP AT THE END OF SUNSET!!! I KNEW IT!! AND I WAS RIGHT!!!!!!!!! OMG!!!!!!!!!!! XD Well, I didn't suspect it was because he wanted to hurt Squirrelflight. I thought it was just because he was furious at Brambleclaw for stealing Squirrelflight away, so he got revenge-crazy and did it. BUT STILL!!! OMG!!! Wow, Ashfur's seriously messed up. He loved Squirrelflight, and then now he's all like "I WANT TO HURT YOU AND TEAR YOU APART FROM INSIDE!!!" Um..okay. No comment. Except for that fact that I hate him. XD ANYWAYS... OMG! OMG !OMG !OMG OMG! OMG !OMG OMG!!!!! AND THEN WHEN ASHFUR DIED...WHOA!!! I DID NOT SEE THAT COMING!!! AT ALL!!! And now I think that Squirrelflight MUST have killed him. It all fits. She was missing before the gathering- around the time when he'd been killed. And when she came back, her excuse wasn't very strong. AND- she was covered in water and mud!! AND ASHFUR WAS FOUND IN A STREAM, WET AND COVERED IN MUD!! See the connection?!?! SHE MUST HAVE KILLED HIM!!! SHE MUST HAVE DONE IT SO THAT HE WOULDN'T SPILL HER SECRET AT THE GATHERING!!! Because she and the three apprentices were the only ones that KNEW what Ashfur was going to do, therefore the only ones who had a reason to kill him! But none of the three killed him, because we're IN their Point of View, so we KNOW they didn't do it!! Squirrelflight HAS to have done it!! She has a motive, and all the evidence points to straight to her. Still...it's hard for me to imagine Squirrelflight killing someone. I mean, it's SQUIRRELFLIGHT, for crying out loud!! SQUIRRELFLIGHT!! We've been inside her head, in her point of view, in the New Prophecy series. We know that she's a kind person. She doesn't go killing people, EVEN if she has a motive to!! But I had this theory...maybe she killed Ashfur by accident. Maybe she sought him out before the gathering because she wanted to try again to convince him not to tell the secret, and then maybe he got fed up so he attacked her, and then maybe Squirrelflight was trying to defend herself and maybe accidentally got carried away and killed him!! At least, that's what I'd LIKE to believe, if Squirrelflight was the one who killed him. But it could be someone else entirely...I have no idea...*siiigh* I JUST CANT BELEIVE ALL THESE THINGS HAPPENED!!!! 0.0 **SPOILER OVER** Well, so...WOW. WOW. WOW WOW WOW WOW WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THIS WAS AMAZING AND AMAZING AND AMAZING AND BY FAR THE BEST WARRIORS BOOK EVER WRITTEN, EVEN MORE THAN OUTCAST AND SUNSET!!! OMG!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Review # 2 was written on 2008-11-09 00:00:00 Andrea Kula I CAN"T WAIT FOR THIS TO COME OUT!!!! November 25, you better get here quickly! ********************************************************************* I finished! This one was pretty good, I liked the plot twist about the three and how they were part of the Tribe of Rushing Water. I really liked the chapters when Jayfeather went back to the Tribe and was Jay's Wing, although I couldn't understand how he had fallen in love with Half Moon as fast as he did. That was kind of unrealistic. Speaking of Jayfeather, he's becoming more likeable every book. I think he's my favorite now. Lionblaze actually didn't act evil in this book, other than his bloddy dreams about killing Heathertail, which were...intersting. I think he's done with Tigerstar. I actually liked him this book. On the other hand, Hollyleaf just gets more and more annoying with her obsession with the Warrior code. During some of the chapters I wanted to shake her and go "YOU CAN BREAK THE WARRIOR CODE SOMETIMES Y'KNOW!!" I think she'll turn evil, but that's just me. Oh, and how can I forget the not one, but TWO giant secrets told in this book?! And right next to each other! Wow, that was a really great chapter! I hope the next one is like that the whole book.
