Warriors

[W0NWILL]

Survivors aren't by the real Erin Hunter, it's too choppy for that. And I trust Dawnwing with Warriors information.

On another note, I am writing a fanfiction of Warriors.

Someone to Lean On - Prologue

Frostbite had been hard the winter I lost my leg. Of course, it was hard every winter, if you lived on a mountain. We called ourselves Snowclan. Apparently we named ourselves after some groups of cats that called themselves clans. That was so long ago everyone thought that was a myth, until Mask came. She was better at storytelling than the elders. Don't tell them I said that. She came from the south and told us of them. There was four, Thunder, Wind, River, and Shadowclan. They sounded a lot like us, with warriors and medicine cats and deputies. I longed to meet them, find a place where the snow didn't fall every day. That dream was to come true, though not in the way I expected it.

What do you mean by that?

[W0NWILL]

Survivors is just being marketed as an Erin Hunter book even though there's nothing connecting it to the people who have been writing Warriors and Seekers for the last decade.

they're using the popular Erin Hunter name to sell more copies, rather than selling it under its own merit as a new author's book.

Hoping to get it soon, also why are you having a hard time reading it?

This is my own personal opinion.

Spoiler

It's horrible! I can barely get past the first few chapters! You may enjoy it, but I clearly do not. I just like Warriors sooo much better.

Really? That's.... Odd. Though I'm glad, because the Erin Hunters are waaaay better than this person.

A preview of Yellowfang's Secret has come out - it contains the first 7-and-a-half chapters.

Yeah, I still haven't read Surviviors yet; I'm not all that enthusiastic about it.  It seems like quite a few of the younger fans like it, but a lot of people dislike it.  The most common complaints are "too much dog jargon" and "too choppy".   I'm going to get it from the library if I ever feel like it (reading plenty of other stuff right now), but not buying it.

Wait... Survivors is about dogs? I might want to give them a try. I like Warriors but I've always been more of a dog person than a cat person. No offense to any cat fans on this board.

None taken! We all have opinions. I love dogs too, but I just couldn't stomach Survivors. Blah.

[Redwallfan7]

Well, I'll have to read the first one and judge for myself.

Quite a long preview, looks good!

  Wow, I just finished Yellowfang's Secret.  It was amazing!  Probably my favorite of all of the Super Editions.  It fought hard for 1st place, but I like it more than Crookedstar's Promise.  That one made me cry so much!

i seen them in the bookshop the other day and was stuck between the tuggerung or one of them.

[Rainshadow]

  Oh, I feel so sorry for you!  I would be torn if I could only choose Taggerung or a Warriors book.

[Dawnwing]

I haven't finished reading Yellowfang's Secret yet; too busy with schoolwork.

[phoenixfoden]

what book is the first in the series?

[Rainshadow]

  Into the Wild is the first in the original series.
