The new series, The Broken Code hits the shops on April 9, 2019 with the first instalment written by Cherith Baldry, Lost Stars.
Here’s a page for you to discuss it.
Note: We know you’re excited to continue reading about the lives of these characters, and love the world that the Erins have set up, but Kate is very busy and may not be able to get back to you regarding specific questions you may have – and she certainly can’t answer questions that spoil the next books! If a moderator or Kate tells you that they can’t answer your question, then we ask you to respect that answer. Thank you for your understanding! 🙂
I just have a random question here. This isn’t really related to Warriors, but it kinda is. I will soon get a male cat with gray fur, and he may be Brittish Shorthair, i think. Can anyone tell me some gray toms? I would want to name him like a cat from the books, like, for example, Stormfur. His name would be Storm, but in my mind, he’s Stormfur, or something like that. If anyone could do that, it would really help me! (And no, not from Dawn Of The Clans) oh, and he’s pale gray. NOT silver!
Graystripe, Stonefur, Gray Wing (why not from DOTC??), Ashfur, Goosefeather, Hawkwing, Boulder, Cloudstar
Stormcloud, Jayfeather, Owlstar, Skystar, Molepaw and Cloudstar maybe?
Ohh, i will think about those names. Thank you for the help! And maybe i will use from DOTC.
You’re welcome!
mine cats are
bramblestar and boulder
i just realized Lionblaze is a grandpa…and Leafpool and crowfeather are great grandparents…and sandstorm and firestar are great great grandparents…and Redtail is a great great great grandfather… 😮
:O
Can you imagine how old Brindleface and Redtail feel about that?
I mean, they’re dead so, yeah, they probably know they were born a long time ago.
Well this probably makes them feel like they’ve been around as long as a cat like Tall Shadow. No, I’m not calling her Shadowstar because Tall Shadow sounds better to me.
The original Dawn of the Clan names for the leaders sound better than with the suffix star.
I agree 100% and I never read any of the super editions or novellas about the early Clans other than just the main arc so I know them with their Ancient names anyway
imagine swiftbreeze she old
Hi Kate, just wondering if we are ever going to find out who Rosepetal was in love with? If not could you tell us?
I would if I knew
Hey Kate ! Do you have any tips for writing and publishing a book, its something I really want to do in the future and I have been told by my parents and teachers that at my best my writing style is very descriptive and good, but I can never seem to plot out a good plot and pace things
Also, roughly how many words are in a chapter or book of warriors, just to give me an idea of how many words books and chapters can be
I always advise people to google this question because there are 100s of 1000s of blogs and websites out there devoted to the topic of writing and getting published.
Hi Kate! This is a question that seems to be bugging people, but do the clans have a concept of “cheating” in relationships? Some people are saying that Appledusk didn’t cheat on Mapleshade because they’re cats, and cats don’t have the concept of cheating, but Warriors seem to be a bit humanized to the point where they’d understand it as such (especially considering Reedshine’s reaction, and Nightcloud’s reaction when she saw Crowfeather looking at Leafpool). Could you clarify please? Thank you!
Warriors can have feelings. I can’t see why they wouldn’t be hurt in the same way people are.
Like Mapleshade! Her heart was broken when she found out about Appledusk being mates with Reedshine after he said he would love I think it was only Mapleshade? Really, so much of the death in MV could have been prevented if Appledusk simply didn’t disown his former wife, who had just seen the bodies of their dead kits. Yes I like Mapleshade and think that she could have been a good cat if Oakstar hadn’t been the ONLY cat to punish a cat for being in a half Clan relationship, and all the other stuff, then Mapleshade could have at least lived in RiverClan and the kits would be alive, and maybe even be in Pinestar’s Choice or Goosefeather’s Curse. Wow that was longer than I intended it to be.
❤️
Eh, I still think Mapleshade brought 75% of it onto herself, but I’m not going to get into that.
Well Oakstar was kinda over the top. He exiled three innocent kits because they were half-Clan. Also, I’m kinda looking from her POV
Oakstar was over the top, but she still brought most of it on herself, and her POV was honestly a really biased POV that made Mapleshade a really bad villain, to me at least.
why oakstar could you let the kits stay untill they were older to survive i mean punshish mapleshade just not her inicent kits <3
I guess.
Hey, Kate, i don’t understand a thing. So, Beetlewhisker got killed by Brokenstar in The Last Hope, but he is listed in the allegiances of the EVERY BOOK on A Vision Of Shadows, and he is even listed in the allegiances of Lost Stars! And i think he appears in Shattered Sky. How does that work? I’m confused! And he is even listed as the mentor of Harepaw/Harelight!
Someone correct me if I’m wrong but I’m pretty sure that Kate has told the editors but there’s just been nothing done about it for some reason. It’s definitely a mistake and from what I know one of the non English editions gave Harepaw to someone else.
It’s kind of fun to think that Beetlewhisker refuses to acknowledge he’s dead so he just goes around as a fully visible ghost and Mistystar was just like “he’s not going anywhere soon, may as well give him an apprentice”
It was the Norwegian version I believe. There since Beetlewhisker is dead, Harepaw’s mentor is Sneezecloud (maybe this could mean Sneezestar? I can hope)
But honestly, the fact that Beetlewhisker is still alive despite dying, plus the fact that Mistystar and Mosspelt are still around and Heavystep died like three times shows that RiverClan cats can cheat death
Mothwing must be practicing witchcraft or something
Well, looks like warriors is even more fantasy than everyone thought 😛
Maybe he’s a zombie 😛 Or maybe another cat is pretending to be Beetlewhisker!!
Lol! That would be funny!
Image how terrified Icewing would be! She only has her youngest kits now, so image how she would feel about her son being a different cat
Kate, how EXACTLY does Leafpool die? I bought lost stars and the allegiances don’t have her!!! Also does Bramblestar die in lost stars? I browsed through it and it said he dies!!!
Kate has said that Leafpool’s death will be covered in the upcoming super edition, Squirrelflight’s Hope 🙂
Leafpool dies in a rock slide, Squirrelflight nearly dies with her but somehow cheats death and comes back to be with Bramblestar.
Kate, do you know the real mentor of Hare(paw)light? Beetlewhisker is already death D: Is it Sneezecloud?
If it’s not written, I don’t know!
who is the voice talking to shadowpaw?
Nobody knows yet, so you’ll have to wait and see.
bramblestars lost life duhhh
I feel like that was a bit rude, and no, we don’t know yet.
I almost spit my coffee when I thought his: Hollyleaf’s vengeful teenage angst ghost has possessed the corpse of her dead step-father to enact revenge on these damn codebreakers! Why won’t anybody follow the Warrior Code!?
Then, of course, that’s ridiculous. I’m just so heartbroken for Bramblestar. Someone help my poor soft boy, he’s gone through so much for this to be his end.
unknown right now we might find out in a couple of books
bramblestar lost life
bramblestars lost life duhhh
it couldn’t have been bramblestar because the spirit started talking to shadowpaw before bramblestar lost a life. it couldn’t have been one of his previous lives because i’m pretty sure he had all nine before lost stars(correct me if i’m wrong) and the spirit conducts a plan to kill bramblestar and convinces shadowpaw to go through with it. i personally think that it’s either tigerstar 1, hawkfrost, or ashfur, but it isn’t confirmed yet.
I thought about all of those cats but… they’re supposed to be double dead. Their spirits were killed in the Great Battle. Was Mapleshade ever confirmed dead in the Great Battle? But that’s far-fetched. What a mystery.
yes i know dapplefern please be less rude
I think it might be one of the Dark Forest cats that’s seeking revenge. Probably a mighty cat that’s also somehow able to shut out StarClan and possess Bramblestar..
Rock maybe?
Rn I’m at school and for some reason can’t log on but I was wondering the same question.
A WindClan protagonist would rock!!!!!!!
Hey Kate !
I’m just wondering, did Fernsong take over nursery duties like he was planning to when Ivypool had finished providing milk for the kittens ?
I don’t think this will be W.A,S as the kits are already fully grown
Yes!
