SPOILER FREE REVIEW:
I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed this!

I've always been very familiar with the fan base of Warrior Cats through YouTube AMVs (animated music videos) and have always wanted to read the series for myself.

We follow the story of a Rusty, a domesticated cat who is used effectively as our audience stand-in. Rusty, and thus, us as a reader are introduced to the world of Warrior Cats and the 4 clans that live in their own respective territories. The conflict is fast-paced but with the right amount of character development on Rustys' part. I really enjoyed his inner dialogue and struggles, and more often, joy with his new life.

Overall, I really enjoyed the mystery and conflict surrounding the clans. I'm very excited to continue with the series to see where it goes.
