    Tigerstar experiences a near-death experience in this exciting and eventful book; numbered 10th in the super editions. It details Tigeheart's escape from ShadowClan with Dovewing, and how they go to a giant big strange city, otherwise known as a Twolegplace, and how Dovewing raises her kits with a group of cats, known as the Guardians. Very nice name. These cats are very strange to Tigerheart, and he debates about whether or not to raise his kits there. And lots shall happen, and problems will be resolved, and a mysterious cat named Spire warns of DANGER. TIGERHEART" S SHADOW was very intriguing. The plot was chock full of events, and the journey to the Twolegplace was interesting. But a bit too boring. SO, it was okay but not that good, and some other Super Editions are probably better. But this is a great book for people who just want something interesting to read and who like longer books.

    zarkinpants's book review was featured in The Letter for the King.
    So it turns out that there was a letter, and there was a king. Three feudal kingdoms, complete with knights and all that: EVIELLAN, DAGONAUT, and UNAUWEN. They are the kingdoms in the book, and Eviellan, as you can see from the spelling, is evil. Or at least, it is ruled by evil humans. Tiuri, a native of The Kingdom of Dagonaut, named after the ruler, King Dagonaut, is going to be a knight. Wow. Knights have cool armor, don't they. But first, he must reflect upon the duties of a knight, but his concentration is broken by a mysterious person banging on the door and asking to be let in. The human is a squire, and he tells Tiuri to deliver a strange and scary letter to a knight, one with a white shield and black armor. The knight then tasks Tiuri with an arduous task, to deliver a letter all the way to Unauwen, before dying a horrible death because some Red Riders, horsemen from Eviellan wearing red armor have mortally wounded him. "My feet are going to be tired." Tiuri thinks, and then he takes the man's black horse, which he gifted to him, and rides on. A quest has begun, it seems. So, I shall now rate this book. Laura Watkinson did a great job translating the book. (It was originally in Dutch.) The book has an old-fashioned style, so some readers may not want to read it maybe. The descriptions are nice, and it is filled with action in most parts. However, the book was not very deep; there was character development, but they could have more character. Overall, people who wish to read classics and/or fantasy will like this book

    zarkinpants's book review was featured in Warriors: The Broken Code #2: The Silent Thaw.
    "The Silent Thaw" by Erin Hunter, who is not an actual human but is actually several life forms, continues the tale of THE BROKEN COKE arc. The story so far is that StarClan, the spirits of all previous clan cats gathered together, is not speaking to Clan Cats anymore. This is very bad because StarClan has special powers of foresight and are very intelligent. Now, Bramblestar, who has just lost a life and so says he knows important info, is telling everyone that Code breakers, that eez, cats who have broken the very important code of honor, should be punished. Then the book tells of how cats from all clans are uniting to fight Bramblestar in secret. Some cats also know a fact that is unthinkable, Bramblestar is actually not Bramblestar! What does that mean? You will have to find out by reading the book. This book told me about the importance of standing up for what you believe in, which is a very important message for young readers, hmmm. That is very educational! The author used concise language that was easy to understand and read, but it could have been more elegant or something. The characters' feelings were portrayed very well, especially Rootpaw worrying about how his father is not like a Clan cat. Very eenteresting story, good for cat people but maybe for dog people too. It shall make you like cats. Also great for humans wanting a book full of plot and with lots of events.

    zarkinpants's book review was featured in Warriors: Into the Wild.
    Lo and behold. Warriors. The book series with lots of characters and 60 or so books. The first book, released 20 years ago, in 2003, tells us about a life form, Rusty, who escapes from the confines of his humans' nest and charges into the forest, never to be seen by the Twolegs again. Which is what those strange cats in the forest, warriors, call members of the Homo Sapiens species. So Rusty, who is only 6 moons old, begins to train as a warrior apprentice, who will catch a lot of tasty prey and fight enemy cats who live in other little tiny cat groups called clans. And he is now called FIREPAW after his brown coat. Then Firepaw meets an old cat who is very chubby; it is Yellowfang, whose teeth are not very well cared for. Oooh. But ShadowClan, a very scary clan, especially with a menacing leader called Brokenstar is demanding to hunt on ThunderClan territory because of FOOD. Unbeknownst to Firepaw, however, there is a prophecy from StarClan, where spirits of dead warriors live, that tells of fire saving the clan. Could he be the key to saving ThunderClan? So I liked this book a lot. I felt like it had better descriptions and more actions than the later mini-arcs. Very exciting and fun to read. Ok writing but not too good.
