The Original plot had already been completed and the forest not yet destroyed. Firestar keeps getting avid nightmares of fleeing cats, but what does it mean? Erin Hunter and Co's new book between books was undoubtedly irrelevent, but highly enjoyable, especially since readers just cant seem to get enough talk about cats going nowhere inparticular (which seems to have been a theme recently...) i so mean that sarcastically- it does get old after a little while, but the book overall was rather good- I mean the plot of the story. i think it could have stood to be a little better thought out and maybe could have used another chapter or ten...The writing ....not so good...erin was lazy with this book and has been, ive noticed with her other newer book, unless I am only just now noticing it; she keeps mixing names up and using names for characters that arnt being used yet. (example, but not one that is in the book: crowkit was crowpaw instantly, and then a page later was magically crowkit again.)
The COVER though..oh my goodness is it beautiful! you see the little image i provided for those of you who havnt gotten your hands on it yet? it doesnt do the cover justice. if you are a kind of person who collects only if its going to be quatlity, and therefore has to buy all of the hardcover books ONLY, would see that its actually a metalic gold thats shiney! paperback is not out yet that i know of. its been a week or so since i have been to the library so i dunno. Also, if you took the outer cover off of the outer cover you'd see the most beautiful painting of Firestar ever! laaahhhh. oh its such a pleasing cover :-]
anyway.
i made this thread for discussion concerning the book...and maybe thoughts on what old skywatcher could have POSSIBALLLY meant...??
