Thunder Rising was written by Erin Hunter, a penname that
started out as 2 women writing the very first Warriors books, and eventually
they recruited new people and now Erin Hunter is composed of 6 women working
together to create the Warriors books.
The two main characters in Thunder Rising are Gray Wing and
Thunder, though Gray Wing is focused on more than Thunder. Gray Wing is a bit
old and experienced, and Thunder is young and inexperienced, thinking he knows
how to do everything, but later realizing he has much to learn. While Gray Wing
and his group lives on the moor, his brother, Clear Sky, is quickly taking
control over the whole forest, expanding his borders at any cost, even that of
another cat’s life. When Thunder decides to join Clear Sky’s group, unknowing
of the horrible things he has done, Gray Wing must face other challenges such
as leading the group and his own sickness.
This is a very entertaining book and I do recommend it
10/10. It is currently the most recent book in the Warriors series, though book
3 of Dawn of the Clans is coming soon.
