Warriors #1: Into the Wild


Review
"Action-packed adventure. Certain to please any young reader who has ever wondered what dreams of grandeur may haunt the family cat." (Publishers Weekly )

"[The] first spine-tingling episode in the planned Warriors series. Sure to appeal to...followers of Brian Jacques' ongoing Redwall series." (ALA Booklist )

"The cat characters are true to their feline nature, making this sure to appeal to fans of Clare Bell's long popular "Ratha's Creature" and its sequels and to followers of Brian Jacques' ongoing Redwall series." (Booklist )

Product Description
Fire alone can save our clan...
For generations, four Clans of wild cats have shared the forest according to the laws laid down by their warrior ancestors. But the ThunderClan cats are in grave danger, and the sinister ShadowClan grows stronger every day. Noble warriors are dying -- and some deaths are more mysterious than others.

In the midst of this turmoil appears an ordinary house cat named Rusty . . . who may turn out to be the bravest warrior of them all.
