Night Whispers Part 2

The title Night Whispers is actually related to the story for two reasons:

1. Dovepaw is visiting Tigerheart at night in secret
2. Ivypaw is visiting the Dark Forest at night and training

About the Dark Forest...

• The main evil cats that are training others are: Tigerstar, Darkstripe, Hawlkfrost, and Mapleshade
• More about Mapleshade: she is very old, and has almost disappeared. She almost killed Ivypaw suffocating her underwater.
• Tigerheart, Ivypaw, Breezepelt, and cats from the other clans are training at the Dark Forest/Place of No Stars
• The Dark Forest has actually been in the Warrior Cats series since Starlight, book 4 in The New Prophecy

Forbidden Love...

• Im so happy Erin ended the Tigerheart & Dovepaw thing, because there has been meeting cats in other clans in secret for a very looong time.
• Lionblaze wanted to mate with Cinderheart, but after he told her about the prophecy, she didnt think she was good enough for him, which made me sad.

Night Whispers Part 1

***SPOILER ALERT!*** IF YOU HAVENT READ NIGHT WHISPERS YET, THIS WILL SPOIL THE STORY!!!

The book starts the day the battle ends with ShadowClan, so unlike the other books, no time has gone by between Fading Echoes and Night Whispers.

When I started this book, I figured not much would happen, and that in the next book, Sign of the Moon, the battle would occur between the clans and the Dark Forest. Well, I was wrong. For the first time in the Warrior Cats series, part of this book was told by Flametail, ShadowClan's medicine cat, starting in chapter 6. The sad part is that, Flametail dies in this book, suffocating in the lake after he fell through the ice in Leaf bare, playing a game with his clan mates. Littlecloud is becoming old, and he had a bad case of whitecough, which means that if he dies, ShadowClan will have no one to replace him.

Here is the summary of Night Whispers:

• Ivypaw is being trained in the Dark Forest, and Dovepaw is trying to stop her.
• Ivypaw learns about Dovepaw's secret, and decides to spy on the cats of the Dark Forest for Dovepaw, Lionblaze, and Jayfeather.
• Lionblaze tells Cinderheart about his power, and she cant handle it, and she doesnt want to be his mate anymore
• Flametail dies...(it was so unexpected & sad!!)
• Each medicine cat is told to tell their clans that they must face the Dark Forest alone, and the other Clans cannot help them.
• Jayfeather is told that ThunderClan is destined to survive, because the 3 of the prophecy are in TC. 
• Dovepaw is visitng Tigerheart at night, but realizes he is using her to get herbs

Excerpts

Crookedstar's Promise:


Blurb: "An ominous prophecy has foretold that Crookedstar, leader of RiverClan, will be utterly betrayed by those closest to him. Crookedstar is forced to watch, helpless, as the words of the prophecy begin to be fulfilled—and as the delicate balance between the four warrior Clans is threatened in ways no cat could have imagined."


SkyClan & The Stranger:


Vicky Holmes said this on her Wands & Worlds chat: "I'm working on a Skyclan manga trilogy at the moment and we learn how Sol first came to to know the Clans... So much fun!"


Blurb:  "The Rescue is the thrilling beginning of the SkyClan and the Stranger manga trilogy. The newly re-formed SkyClan is thriving under Leafstar’s leadership—but strangers are lurking near SkyClan’s territory, and Leafstar realizes that her young Clan may be in serious danger."




Both of these are released July 5, 2011!!
