Firestar begins being haunted in his dreams by a long lost Clan, SkyClan, that he’s never heard of before now. After having these dreams many times he finally finds where he needs to go in order to learn what they mean, but what he finds is that he needs to go on a long, possibly perilous journey to find the remnants of SkyClan.

What I Liked

It was nice to see that once again, StarClan isn’t all-powerful and can’t always force things to happen, plus it shows in this book that they can make mistakes or keep dark secrets just like any living cat. It was also nice to see Smudge be useful to the plot, if only for a short time. I didn’t really get very invested in this book until the mid-way point though, at which point I started actually wanting to read it.

What I Didn’t Like

It took nearly one-fifth of the book (chapter 8) for Firestar to finally meet SkyClan’s leader. It felt like it took absolutely forever for it to move forward. Hattie was also introduced close to this time and she felt sort of pointless, though I guess it would make sense for Firestar’s former owners to get another cat after he ran away. She simply didn’t add much, if anything, to the plot. ( )

I haven't read a Warriors book for over 10 years, but my heart still belongs to Firestar.

My favorite bit of this book was how recruiting for a "new" clan sure came across an AWFUL lot like recruiting for a cult. ( )

Full Review

After reading this, I felt satisfy that all books are connected in some way or another. The story starts out slow but, all with good instance. There were some parts that could have been cut out. Like when Firestar and Sandstorm got separated. Perhaps it was a test of their character devolvement. I like a little bit of it but, it went on longer then is could had.

I read Skyclan’s Destiny before FSQ and so I didn’t have a full understanding of the cats of Skyclan. Now I can were they come from and come a long way when Firestar find them. Throughout the whole book there this mystery surrounding Skyclan. Making it more mysteries as to why they scatter.

There some deep theme of what it means to be a warrior of a clan, live in unity, and the meaning of being a leader.
Some cats join for protection, some for honor, and some because it in their blood to be a clan cat. ( )

Firestar, now leader of ThunderClan, must head out on a quest. StarClan has spoken to him. He must go and remake the long lost clan, SkyClan. Joined by his mate Sandstorm, Firestar leaves his clan to find and re-build SkyClan. He faces many challenges to do it. Will he suceed? Or die trying.

This was an awesome book. I finally know why Sandstorm and Firestar named their kit Squirrelkit and Leafkit. Leafkit for a cat they met on their journey. And Squirrelkit for her bushy, squirrel-like tail. I loved how Erin Hunter wrote this book. It was a very good read. ( )

An enjoyable side novel set in between the first and second Warrior series.

The writing isn't that strong in the beginning and gets more tedious toward the middle, but then it picks up again and becomes very interesting and exciting. ( )
