One of the over thirty novels in the Warrior Cats series, Bramblestar's Storm still manages to stand-alone and requires no previous reading. Although a reader new to the series might be a bit confused at first, everything will be explained enough for a new reader. The book is not without it's faults, Erin Hunter (really several authors working as one) is notorious for forgetting their own characters and plots. Although no cats were raised from the dead this time, there were a few mistakes which might bother a fan who's read more of the series. The POV feels a little weak, it's a character we already know so much about and the story could have been more interestingly told through someone else. The book also feels bogged down by too many events in too small of a time-span. On the other hand it is interesting and it does introduce a few new, interesting characters for the series to use in future books. There is also plenty of action with battles and a decent amount of drama between the different cat groups. For an adult reader it's enjoyable, but nothing remarkable. Slightly older children (the series does have quite a bit of death and violence), especially children with an interest in animals will definitely love this book to pieces.

So... this entire collection of books authored by a group of gals named Erin Hunter is one of my guilty pleasure series. When I first started reading them I though Erin Hunter was one person haha. I LOVE them, they are books I can get lost in and provide an escape from other books that get me down. It's also been a hot minute since I've read any Warriors books and it took some adjusting to get back into the swing of things and remember the prior events (mostly). I'm glad that this book filled out what happened after the fight with The Dark Forest cats but I felt for a Super Edition it fell a little flat.
The prophecy that was received wasn't as potent as all the others I remember and when it's conclusion arrived it didn't really feel like it should've been a prophecy at all. All in all, a lot of setup in this book with not a lot of follow through with the rest of the book. I do admire Bramblestar for sticking to his theoretical guns and doing what he thought was just and right. I am hoping that the mention of SkyClan actually goes somewhere - I enjoyed that story arc with Firestar & Sandstorm.
If you know a middle-grade reader that loves cats I would highly suggest this series (or if you do). I have one niece that loved them (parent's too) and one niece that didn't so for our family it's been 50/50. The main series of Warriors now feature seven series each with six books (besides the seventh series The Broken Code which is ongoing) putting the book total at 39 books! The Super Editions add another 12 books and the novellas 15 - all together you and/or the middle-grade reader would have 66 books to read. If you would like to read them in chronological order you can find a neat list on the Warriors website. I have not read any of the manga, so I don't really have an opinion of those versus the books. Again I would highly recommend this book (and all the others) to readers who enjoy middle-grade fiction, low fantasy, anthropomorphism (since the cats display human emotions etc.) ( )
