Rising Storm continues the Warriors series with the same breathtaking intensity I expected. The constant climax building throughout the book is nothing short of a masterpiece. Erin Hunter keeps the tension high, making it impossible to put down. The stakes feel higher with each page, and the intensity of events hits hard as the story reaches its peak.
However, the ending frustrated me in the best (and worst) way—another cliffhanger! It’s both exciting and agonizing, as the wait to see how everything unfolds feels unbearable.
(Spoilers ahead!) This book was especially emotional for me, as some of my favorite cats didn’t make it through. Yellowfang's death was particularly heart-wrenching. She was one of my favorite characters, and her loss was deeply felt. The plot twist at the end was shocking and left me eagerly awaiting the next book.
If you're a fan of the Warriors series, prepare yourself for yet another gripping and emotional journey!
