This book didn’t hold high hopes for me since although a massive fans of the series, and I have loved a vision of shadows, I felt like they had reached the potential for the series and that their wasn’t much more they could include. What I really wanted to see was how dovewing was settling in in shadowclan and I saw a bit but possibly not as much as I had hoped.

Alderheart is such a lovely character though, seeing him develop from the goofy, shy little apprentice into the passionate and caring medicine cat he is gives me goosebumps!

And although I felt the plot focussed a bit too much on the main characters (alderheart, violetshine and twigbranch) it was good to see them all progressing as characters and it made me love violetshine even more and get even more frustrated and annoyed with twigbranch 😂 I guess things don’t change. But I felt immensely proud of young alderheart! In my ideal book I always prefer to see some of the background characters. For example Lionblaze and dovewing who were such prominent characters in the past few series I don’t feel ready to let go of them yet and still want to see interactions between them.

Overall a great read (as they all are) I finished it in a day and now I’m upset that I don’t have any new warrior cat books for a while 😂 and honestly the main thing I want to see happen for the next series is simply harrybrook and bellaleaf become mates😅 I have shipped them for so long now! But I cannot wait for the next series but just hope it would be more consistent then a vision of shadows. While I would say 2 books in this series were amazing (shattered sky and river of fire) and the rest were just great books, I want the next series to consistently be amazing!
