Dawn (Warriors: The New Prophecy #3)

The traveling cats have finally returned home! But along with their return, comes news of grave danger. The clan cats have been holding out for a while against the advancing two-legs for a while, but how much longer can they stay in their territories? The two-legs have been ripping up trees and clearing land for new buildings and everyday the cats live in fear of the on coming monsters. The returning cats have met Midnight, and bring a message from StarClan: they must unite and leave their territories and settle elsewhere, or their clans will be destroyed! But the clans have lived in their territories for as long as any cat can remember—will they listen to the warning or will they all join StarClan?

To top all the problems off, cats have gone missing from every clan! Sorreltail watched in horror as her friend was caught in a twoleg’s trap and taken away—will this be the fate of more clan cats? Not if ThunderClan has anything to say about it! Graystripe heads a rescue mission, but during it, a beloved cat is captured! Will they ever see the cat again?

Meanwhile, WindClan has suffered terribly, and Tallstar implores Firestar to take StarClan’s message and begin their journey to a new home. Firestar knows his own clan cannot survive much longer, but wishes for all four clans to come—there has always been four clans in their territory, and one watching from above, that’s how it should always be. But RiverClan has no intention of leaving—they have been the least affected by the changes.

However, when the monsters invade ShadowClan’s camp at last and the water level in the river drops, RiverClan is finally convinced that all the clans must leave. But where will the four clans go? When will StarClan send a signal?

Join the clans on an adventure of a lifetime as they are forced to move on as they survive! Can the cats unite to save their clans on the perilous journey? Will the missing cat be found or will the clans be forced to leave the cat behind? Where will the clans go? And when old friends are reunited, new decisions, however hard, must be made. Will the clans make it through such hard trials together?

Readers following the chosen cats’ journey will enjoy this third installment to the Warriors: The New Prophecy series! However, despite the fact it will answer (and open up!) many questions, I do not think this book is truly as good as the previous, original Warrior series. It does not have the same charm, spark, and elaborate and fascinating plot as the previous set did. But if you are a Warriors fan, or a cat or adventure lover in general, you may still enjoy this series!
