Skyclan's Destiny by Erin Hunter

4.0

Warriors: Skyclan's Destiny is another great addition to the Warriors series. Different from many in the series, the focus is on conflict in the clan and within themselves instead of battles. From the very beginning, Leafstar develops issues trusting her clanmates and a big gap develops between the full-time warriors and the daylight warriors (cats who are warriors during the day, but sleep with humans). Sharpclaw, Leafstar's deputy, oftentimes challenges her on the subject and leads to more personal issues within Leafstar. Though there are a few dry periods, the plot is kept interesting by a mysterious group of four cats that randomly join the clan.

The four cats prove themselves by greatly assisting in a battle against a swarm of rats, which is coincidentally one of Skyclan's greatest fears. The battle unites the clan slightly, but distress is still clear. It isn't until the end of the book that the Skyclan cats manage to feel completely united again and Leafstar is trusting. This book makes strong use of character development to make the reader feel emotionally attached to the characters. However, it can be boring at times due to a small amount of plot twists and battles.
