Okay, I don't know why this one is called "Sky" instead of "Shadow", as it seemed ShadowClan was more relevant to the plot than SkyClan, but wow! This one is better than the previous book, "River".
Finally, there is action. And RiverClan's problems actually lead to very real consequences in this book. I actually liked Nightheart in this book—he was considerably less whiny. Frostpaw is still OK, but she is less annoying, yay. I actually kinda liked Sunbeam in this one as well.
This is the book where the author gives us what we want. Yes, we want RiverClan's internal conflict to spread to the other clans for action and drama and stuff. Yes, we want Nightheart to disown his clan... For more drama! We want Frostpaw to fail in choosing a leader... Again. Everything that can go wrong, we want to go wrong, because that means more action and drama. And Erin Hunter gives it to us! Woo.
And there are some illogical parts where I guess I'm supposed to turn off my brain and not question things... Like, come on Tigerstar, your acting a bit too obsessive and kit-like. Also, Nightheart and Sunbeam's romance really, really springs up out of nowhere. They only see each other like, three times, and then they are in love? Eh? Anyway:
It's still a mediocre book, but at least this one was a surprisingly compelling mediocre book. Maybe it's just that high from just having completed it, but I think this might be one of my favorite Warriors books so far. Not as good as Crookedstar's Promise (which is a masterpiece), but still, it's there on my top list!
