boredcat99 's review for:
A Dangerous Path
by Erin Hunter
I have been reading this series aloud to my kids at bedtime for a while now. My 12 year old had read the books previously but stopped in the middle of this book. I now think I know why.
There were some interesting developments in this book, but it definitely felt like not as much happened in the middle parts of the book. It could be called suspense or else...maybe...filler between book 4 and book 6. SO much of this book seemed to be just biding its time, hoping that Bluestar would come back to her senses. And waiting to see what the Pack thing was all about, and what Tigerstar was going to do.
We even paused in the middle to read another book or two for a while. But we did eventually get back to it, and found that we were able to make it through the last quarter of the book without any trouble, as we were finally getting the payoff for all that set-up.
If you've been reading and enjoying the Warriors books through this point, it makes sense to read A Dangerous Path. Some books in a series are fine to read exclusive of the others in the series. I believe this is not a book that would stand well on its own.
One positive thing, though - we finished this book last night and my son (who is home sick from school today) is already asking me to read the 6th and final book in the series to him. I think he believes book 6 is the part of the story he's been waiting for all along - Fireheart becoming Firestar is something that he's had on his mind for about 3 books now!
