Product Description |
|
The Clans are in turmoil. ShadowClan has turned its back on StarClan and pledged to follow the dark predictions of Sol, the strange cat who foretold the solar eclipse. But not all the cats have lost faith in their warrior ancestors. . . . Jaypaw is convinced that StarClan still holds an important place in the warrior code, and his search for answers leads him far back into the past, farther back than even StarClan can remember. Lionblaze, tortured by violent dreams and bloody visions, wishes he had never been prophesied to be one of the three but to turn his back on his littermates would be the ultimate betrayal. And Hollyleaf is terrified that once the Clans lose their faith, the warrior code will fall apart. She's willing to fight tooth and nail to preserve it—whatever the cost. And when murder stalks into the heart of ThunderClan, the cats realize that the darkest shadows don't always lie outside the territory. |

Cats, warriors and adventure! |
Reviewed by Ben Weldon (age 11) for Reader Views (12/08)
"Warriors: Power of Three #5: Long Shadows" by Erin Hunter is the story of three cats - Jaypaw (later called Jayfeather), Lionblaze, and Hollyleaf. All three are great warriors in the eyes of their clan. But when ThunderClan is stricken with a plague of greencough, they must stick together to help the clans free themselves of the evil cat Sol. Will the cats be able to stand strong when a devastating family secret is revealed and a fellow clan member is murdered?
Sol, a white and brown tabby with long hair, is an odd tomcat with pale yellow eyes. Nobody knows where he came from. Sol's plan is to convert the clans to not believing in StarClan (StarClan is a version of heaven where the cat's spirits go when the die) and then become ultimate ruler of the clans. Will he succeed?
Sol successfully infiltrated ShadowClan, but the ShadowClan members were blinded to Sol's evil plotting. Thankfully members of ThunderClan notice what is happening. To get rid of Sol, three cats from ThunderClan head towards a marsh near the ShadowClan camp to try and fake a sign from StarClan. Their plan is to dig up trees near the ShadowClan camp and tip over the trees to trick them into thinking that the omen was from StarClan. Will ShadowClan change its views so that they begin to realize that they were tricked?
Erin Hunter has written many Warriors books (a whole three series) about four clans of cats that have constantly changing alliances and even wars. The cats' ultimate enemy is the two legs (humans) who have destroyed the cats' original habitat and continue to terrorize the cats and threaten them with monsters (cars, bulldozers etc...). The books were all very good and were so well written that you can just pick this one up and read it without having read the preceding books. This book, like all her others, ends with a cliff hanger and you will be reaching for the next book.
I would recommend this book to people that like to read books about animals, especially cats. This book contained no language that parents would object to. "Warriors: Power of Three #5: Long Shadows" by Erin Hunter was an intriguing book and I hope that everyone who reads this book enjoys it as much as I did.

No Disappointments Here! |

Full of twists and turns leading the Warriors books down a whole new path - not just the books, but the three`s intertwig destiny. From experiece alone, I can guarantee this well-written piece of artwork will leave you egrossed in the book, unable to put it down. It soars past other books and I wholesomely can say three things: Your life will be changed by Erin Huter`s masterpiece, this is the best book series I have ever read and I would recommend it to any one, and lastly that you should have money for spare when you read this book because you will want the next book in the series. Overall, this is one of the best books I`ve ever read and I could not have pictured this book any better. I loved it. A magnificant work of art. |

WARRIORS - LONG SHADOWS - POWER OF # #5 |
|
Again, another excellent book by Erin Hunter. Three young cast explore their expectations of themselves, their clans and their loyalties. Also, much more of Rock and the ancient cats are realed through Jaypaw's dreams. In the midst of all this, a newcomer, Sol seems to be intent on slowly destroying the clans from within. One of the best books in the series so far. |

best warriors book yet!!!!!!!! |
This is the BEST Warriors book so far. I read it in one afternoon because it was so good. You should read the other ones first, but when you get to this one, then read it.
I wish you didn't have to wait until April for the next installment! There's a cliffhanger ending. Huge secrets are revealed but I'm not telling which |
