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 youโre 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 canโt answer questions that spoil the next books! If a moderator or Kate tells you that they canโt answer your question, then we ask you to respect that answer. Thank you for your understanding! ๐
Kate, would you ever be open to writing a scene from Tigerstar I’s POV from when he was losing his lives? Or would you be able to explain if he kept going back to Starclan, what was going on in his mind, etc? Did he expect to come back? I’m just very curious if he was conscious of going back to Starclan and living again, and repeating? Did he immediately go to the Dark Forest or did he stay in Starclan for a bit?
Thank you!
Anyone else kinda disapointed about the SkyClan merch? The two words chosen for SkyClan was “tough and powerful” it feels like they didn’t even try. I remember seeing “agile and determined” a lot to describe SkyClan though I’m not sure if it is canon. Anyway, “agile and determined” sounds a lot better than “tough and powerful”.
Kate, what do you think about the new Ashfur theory? ๐

Will we ever get to see an POV from a windclan cat kate
None are planned at the moment. ๐
For Kate: Does Scourge have descendants? Also, where did his soul go when he died?
I don’t know of any descendants. I guess his soul went wherever rogue souls go after death!
Well, he did have nieces. Does that count?
I meant more like kids, grandkids, etc.
Could Smoke possibly be a kit of his? I know it’s probably unlikely, seeing as how she was a kittypet while Scourge was roaming around with BloodClan, but it would certainly be interesting if Darktail was his grandson
Did he and Firestar ever find out that they’re half brothers?
I can’t remember. Does anyone else know this?
Firestar doesn’t know. As far as we’re concerned.
Thanks, Jaysnow ๐
Of course! ๐
Imagine if Firestar realized that Scourge was actually his half brother right after killing him. If so, poor guy. ๐
๐
I was just wondering if they found out after they died, if that’s possible. And how they felt about being related.
Also, did Scourge have any good in him, or is he completely evil?
I actually wrote very few books with Scourge in. I don’t really know him that well. He was more Cherith and Vicky’s boy. So evil, through and through probably. ๐
Honestly, reading this book I really took to the character of Spotfur
She seems super nice
And I kinda low key shipped Spotfur x Bristlefrost briefly rip meeeee (ok I still ship it) ๐
I loved all the characters, but Bristlefrost was my fave
I did kind of ship but it Spotfur is Bristlefrost’s aunt so I was like ehhh
omsc I forgot to check the family tree gosh
ooops I forgot EVERYONE is related
Don’t worry, I shipped Sun Shadow and Shadowstar before I realised that they were also aunt and nephew.
And I also shipped Lionblaze and Dovewing before realizing they were related
Still would make an interesting couple though (like Lionblaze x Icecloud)
Wow, so many good ships ruined by everyone being related ๐
that’s a big mood
I forgot they were related and shipped them a few times, then was thoroughly dissapointed after remembering ๐
SAME!
I felt like taking Steamleaf and throwing him and Spotfur out a window together once I read what he said.
JUST LET POOR BRISTLEFROST CONTINUE HER LIFE HAPPILY!
I don’t particularly see why it would be so bad that Stemleaf didn’t share Bristlefrost’s feelings and liked Spotfur tbh. Rejection happens all the time in the real life, I don’t see why it wouldn’t happen in fiction either.
…and I mean, Bristlefrost got over it, at least. We should be more thankful that she didn’t pull an Ashfur.
For some reason, I imagine Foxleap being the cat that Rosepetal fell in love with.
I’m pretty sure it was Bumblestripe
Speedy mod?
Speedy mod indeed ๐
I mean, it was mentioned Rosepetal had a crush on some cat before and was rejected, so it could be either Foxleap or Bumblestripe, it could be both. If it was Bumblestripe, I’m pretty sure that destroys the chance for Bumble x Rose happening.
I prefer Bumble x Cherry anywaysSame Hazy
I ship Fox X Rose
I actually despise Foxleap x Rosepetal with all my heart, but that’s my opinion ๐
another great ship ruined by cats being related to each other ๐
well, I shipped Ivy x Fox a little ๐
I shipped Dove x Fox and I was disappointed that it never became canon ๐
Honestly I can see why so many ThunderClan cats look for a mate outside of the Clan ๐
oh well, that’s what fanfiction is forI kind of did
Dove x Fox was a good ship honestly
I liked their interactions in Sign of the Moon
Plus, Foxleap was a really cool character
Even though they’re full to the brim with cats, they still can’t find one that fits their taste ๐

I’m going to leave this one to our readers to discuss among themselves.
I don’t know why, but i decided to do this. Here are all my ships that aren’t mates yet/are mates but don’t have kits, or it’s just unknown if they are truly mates or have kits together or something like that
Larksong x Sparkpelt
Twigbranch x Finleap
Sorrelstripe x Molewhisker
Stemleaf x Spottedfur
Cherryfall x Stormcloud
Rosepetal x Bumblestripe (a little)
Minnowtail x Owlnose (dunno why)
Yep. Those are all my ships.
Oof I like the Minnowtail x Owlnose ship but mainly because I don’t like Minnowtail x Mousewhisker ๐ (Cherryfall x Stormcloud seems okay but
I ship Cherryfall with Bumblestripe more)And btw, it’s actually Spotfur, not Spottedfur. I hope that helped ^_^
Oof, i don’t really mind that, and, OH YEAH, IT’S SPOTFUR. Sorry, i was a little tired when i send that message. That really helped!
My ships are
Rose x Bumble
Cherry x Storm
Dew x Sorrel ( idk they closest in age range I guess)
Spark x Lark
Mole x Fly
Snap x Plum
Some r randoms I though would be cute
I love Rose x Bumble, Cherry x Storm, and Spark x Lark a lot tbh I hope they become canon
I kind of want Shellfur to be Sorrelstripe’s mate even though it would be really random (I just love Shellfur and want him to live an amazing life and possibly become Patrol Guy 2)
Mole x Fly and Snap x Plum seem good too
Thanks
I like Cherry x Storm a bit, but tbh I prefer them as friends along with Rose x Bumble and Spark x Lark. Though I kind of think that Sorrelstripe had a forbidden mate instead, and I’m really on the fence about Dew x Sorrel, Mole x Fly, and Snap x Plum. I prefer Molewhisker with Sparkpelt or Twigbranch (moreso with Twiggy) and I don’t really see Snap or Plum becoming mates
Kate, with Tree being a polydactyl cat (having an extra toe on one of his paws), is either Rootpaw or Needlepaw one as well?
Nah ๐
Aw. I would have loved if one of them inherited this trait.
I know, but dear little Rootpaw is having enough trouble being related to a weird cat like Tree as it is. The poor thing would have been mortified if he’d got The Toe too. โค๏ธ And Needlepaw is just too regular to have an extra anything. If she had The Toe, I get the feeling she’d gnaw it off quietly before anyone noticed.
To Kate: Will there ever be an evil medicine cat character? I’d rather it not be Shadowpaw, I like him, but maybe another one eventually?
I hope so ๐
I’d really like to see an evil RiverClan medicine cat apprentice tbh
Maybe next series we’ll have a Riverclan cat and a Windclan cat P.O.V.?
My shippings:
– Cherry x Storm
– Spot x Stem
– Sorrel x Mouse
– Holly x Mole
– Spark x Lark
– Leaf x Shell
– Rose x Bumble
I decided to tell here the cats that i think should die. Only the cats from Lost Stars, and, of course, that aren’t dead. (DON’T ASK PLEASE, I NEED TO TELL IT, OOF)
1. Bramblestar – he’s possesed, i need Squirrelstar. I don’t like him at all.
2. Graystripe – i really, really like him. But it’s time for him to die and go to StarClan and see all his dead family members and friends that died.
3. Daisy – She’s old. Millie died. She also needs to die.
4. Oakfur – He’s just old.
5. Mistystar – SHE’S WAY TOO OLD!
6. Mothwing – She’s been alive too much. Willowshine needs to be the only medicine cat in Riverclan and receive an apprentice!
7. Mosspelt – I mean, she’s my favourite Riverclan cat, but she needs to die.. To see her deceased mate and probably some friends that died.
Those are all the cats that i think should die. Not because i hate them, just because i think it’s their time or something like that. DON’T HATE ME!
Well, Daisy’s getting a novella that takes place after the 3rd book. So she’ll survive the 2nd and 3rd books of TBC. After that, who knows. I personally believe that her novella might end with her retiring or dying.
Just saying, I hope Bramblestar goes by quick.
I don’t want another Firestar.
Please.
Also ThunderClan needs a she-cat leader! It’s been forever since we’ve had one! (AKAย almost 6 arcs! Not counting SEs or Novellas)
I agree with all of these, but we havenโt had confirmation that Mistystar, Graystripe, and/or the other cats other than maybe Bramblestar or Daisy arenโt immortal ๐
