While Firestar's Quest was mostly well known for being the first of its kind, but having

a so-so story, Bluestar's Prophecy instantly became and remains to this day a fan favorite

for its emotional narrative and exploration of Thunderclan when Bluestar was growing up…and

I have several fundamental problems with it, some of which I blame for issues we still

Still, it really isn't all bad and I will be taking a look at this book's strengths

as well as its faults, so rest assured this won't be a video purely bashing on your

Bluestar's Prophecy came out on July 28th of 2009, almost 2 years after Firestar's

Quest, a month after Return to the Clans and Code of the Clans, 3 months after Sunrise,

and 4 months before the start of the new main series arc.

Additionally, while the first super edition was written by Cherith Baldry, this one was

written by Kate Cary, who has at this point shown off a certain passion for or focus on

emotions and little character moments where Cherith excels in moving forward a plot and

Even though all of the books at this point were still heavily drafted by and controlled

by Victoria Holmes, there may be a reason this book turned out the way it did.

I would guess that, either, this emotional story was given to Kate because they knew

her style would fit and / or the story became more rich and emotional as it was in Kate's

Either way, I'm not complaining about this aspect.

Doing a full allegiance check-in for this book is difficult as it covers a period we've

Some names like Pinestar, Sunfall, Dapplepaw and Whitepaw you may recognize from the Code

of the Clans book that just came out, some like Sunfall…perhaps one day Sunstar, and

Featherwhisker were even name-dropped back in Secrets of the Clans, and others such as

Smallear, Raggedpelt, and even little Crookedkit and Graykit, later Graypool, we can recognize

from the original series and know where their paths will lead.

However, the majority of this cast is new or won't be recognizable until later on

in the book, so I'll just note some of the important ones we'll come to know.

Thunderclan's current medicine cat is a tom called Goosefeather, and Featherwhisker

Moonflower is currently a queen, with Bluekit and Snowkit as her daughters, and the leaders

are currently Pinestar of Thunderclan, Cedarstar of Shadowclan, Heatherstar of Windclan, and

The cast size of this book is 58 cats, and there will only be three other super editions

with cast sizes this low, so it's safe to say the speaking cast is pretty tight.

That said, many cats get substantial amounts of lines, which is why the top 10 characters

only get 72% of the lines here, pretty average for a super edition.

38% of the cast is she-cat characters but, thanks to Bluestar and her sister having the

highest linecounts in the book, even though almost every other prominent character is

a tom, she-cats still get 57% of the lines.

A book's quality has never been determined by its statistics, so let's get into the

real meat of the content and dive into the story.

The prologue consists of the famous scene where Bluestar saved Fireheart from the dogs

and died herself, this time from Bluestar's own point of view.

As she falls into the river, what she calls, “Goosefeather's prophecy” courses through

She also hears Oakheart, who we know to be the father of her kits, telling her not to

give up and guiding her in how to swim until she can be saved by their kits.

She speaks to Fireheart and her kits, and, once they forgive her, she is able to serenely

Now we zoom back to the very beginning, for her, at least.

We start off…uh odd, with a queen complaining that Bluekit hasn't opened her eyes yet

Eh, we're all aware that the Erins' knowledge of real cats is…shall we say, inconsistent.

Eventually, Bluekit, excited at the idea of being a warrior, opens her eyes and takes

in her surroundings, including her mother, Moonflower, and her sister, Snowkit.

There are a lot of character-building moments here for everyone in the den, and there will

continue to be for the rest of the book, but because this book is so long already I'm

going to have to pass over most of those for the summary.

Just know that the clan is lent a rich sense of culture as a result of these moments.

Bluekit and Snowkit explore and learn more about their clan, including introducing themselves

to several apprentices, warriors, and other cats we'll come to know in this book.

Bluekit shows herself here to be assertive, curious, and not especially respectful of

She quickly got annoyed by following the older kits and instead got herself and Snowkit in

trouble by wandering off on their own and into the warriors' den.

We also learn at this point that Goosefeather is Moonflower's brother, and therefore Bluekit's

The next day, they are presented to their father: Stormtail, who they have already been

told is a great and important warrior who doesn't often have time for his kits because

Stormtail is rather flippant towards them, not showing the interest or enthusiasm that

Moonflower clearly has and saying their mentors will take on the duties of teaching them skills

He leaves almost immediately, as well, since Pinestar asked him to share prey that day.

Before he leaves, he says that kits should stay in the nursery when Bluekit asks to accompany

him and briefly chides them for going into the warriors' den the previous day.

They also get to meet Goosefeather, who Moonflower seems uncomfortable around.

Still, to the kits he is teasing and jovial and willingly shares what his job as a medicine

While Moonflower has to step out, Bluekit and Snowkit get into Goosefeather's herbs

and Snowkit ends up swallowing some poppy seeds, which makes Moonflower frantic and

then furious even though Goosefeather is sure they'll be fine.

More clan time passes by, some kits being born, apprentices and warriors being made,

Sunfall the deputy taking Bluekit to climb up the wall out of camp, and I'll just leave

a note here that *Bluekit* was the one that named Thistlekit when he was born, after his

spiky fur, but we will mostly move past this period.

Bluepaw and Snowpaw are made apprentices, to Stonepelt (the warrior they bumped into

and annoyed as kits) and Sparrowpelt respectively.

Taking them away from the discussion of a potential battle with Windclan over stolen

prey, Stonepelt immediately takes Bluepaw for her first day of training, which involves

learning to properly cut, collect, and carry moss for the elders.

Bluepaw is very disappointed, having wanted to patrol or explore the territory or hunt

or fight, but over the course of the day she ends up learning several skills about control,

precision, and efficiency from Stonepelt's training which she is proud of…until an
