Der Donnerclan ist in Gefahr! Nicht nur scheint ein Hund im Gebiet der Katzen umherzustreifen, auch die Anführerin des Clans ist angeschlagen. Sie misstraut allem und jedem. Wie kann Feuerherz seinen Katzen helfen ohne die Unterstützung von Blaustern? Ich gebe zu, dass ich lange überlegt habe, ob ich die Kampfkätzchen nicht sein lassen soll. Jeder Band funktioniert irgendwie gleich und jedes Mal geht es um die Existenz des Clans (das wäre mir als Mitglied auf Dauer zu anstrengend), doch nach diesem Buch will, nein muss!, ich einfach weiterlesen. "Gefährliche Spuren" ist der bisher beste Band der Reihe, brutaler als die Vorgänger und oft musste ich während des Lesens schlucken. Aber ich war dabei und habe endlich wieder mitgezittert, denn im fünften Band der ersten Staffel kann man tatsächlich nicht mehr vorhersehen, was passieren wird. Ein grossartiges Leseabenteuer mit den Kätzchen!

My favorite part about the Warrior series is the character development and how each series is a new generation of cats. To be honest, halfway through the book I got really impatient because I knew what was going to happen to a specific character and that character was actually starting to get on my nerves. I can definitely relate to Fireheart, especially since he is going outside his comfort zone by being in a leadership role, not that it was his choice to take on this role but I can relate to his worries and discomforts. Quite entertaining.

I'M NOT OKAY. *sobs incoherently*
What is this series doing to me?! I went in thinking of it as kind of a joke - a juvenile book for some fluff to pass the time - well, THE JOKE IS ON ME NOW.
This book is soooo not fluff. In a way, it *kind* of is - I mean, it's about warrior cats for crying out loud. But it's much heavier than I expected. There's a lot of death and hardship that totally caught me by surprise. The characters and world have gotten under my skin in a way I never expected them to. I'm so invested in this story, I care about what happens to each and every one of these cats.
Bluestar's decline in mental health was really hard to watch. For such a strong and resilient leader to be reduced to the bitter, paranoid cat she became made me so so sad. And it absolutely broke my heart that she labeled Fireheart as a traitor even though he was doing the right thing and what he felt was best for his Clan. The divide between them sucked so bad!
Also P.S. Fireheart is the "fire" that will save the clans I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT

Every single death killed me a little! Brindleface, Snowkit, Swiftpaw, and even Brightpaw's maiming (which was made more upsetting by the fact that she was renamed Lostface THAT'S SO MEAN OMG). Ughhhh!! But also can I mention that Cloudtail's unwavering love and loyalty to her despite her being horribly scarred was SO FREAKING CUTE. "You’re still beautiful to me. You always will be." BRB THERE'S SOMETHING IN MY EYEEEE.Bluestar's decline in mental health was really hard to watch.

I'm so glad they reconciled at the end. I knew Bluestar was going to die. It was just a matter of when. But fuck me, that hurt SO. BAD. I was legit sobbing for like 20 minutes after I finished the book because I couldn't get over it! And the way it happened KILLED me. The fact that we finally see the old badass Bluestar, that she finally comes to her senses, only to sacrifice herself for Fireheart...I just...I can't. I CAN'T. When she tackled the dog to get it off Fireheart I literally screamed "NOOO!!" out loud because I knew the moment had finally come. *sobs* I'm so glad she had a final moment of clarity, and her encouraging words to not only Fireheart but Stonefur and Mistyfoot (her own kits) made it hurt so much worse! DEAD.Also P.S. Fireheart is the "fire" that will save the clans I KNEW IT I KNEW IT I KNEW IT
