Rising StormAug 23, 2005
By Sis
This is my favorite of the Warriors books, and they're all really, really good. I like how you can really feel as if you're there with Fireheart as he struggles with his new duties as deputy. I love the character of Cloudpaw, and how he has a whole different personality than the other characters in the book- he's more laid back and not as noble. I really wasn't expecting the Fireheart/Sandstorm relastionship, but it was a great thing to put into the series, as you'll see in the books to come.
For a summary of the book- Fireheart, now Clan deputy, must figure out how to juggle his new duties and still have time to worry about the still-lurking Tigerclaw in the forest, along with the fact that the weather in the forest is heating up, and his wayward apprentice isn't proving to the Clan that kittypets really can be warrriors. Along with that, his leader is a shell of her former self, and it's up to FIreheart to hide her weakened state to the Clan.
The deaths in the book are handled well, you still feel sad but not to the point when you just don't want to read it because it's deppressing. I loved the cliffhanger ending, and was glad that I had bought the 5th book at the same time so I could read it right away!

 Warriors: Book Four Rising StormJan 10, 2004
I have now read all the books that have come out in this series so far, and I have to say "Fire and Ice" is my favorite. In the fourth book, Fireheart is now the clan deputy, and his apprentice, Cloudpaw, has seriously been breaking the warrior code. Also, Bluestar, the clan leader, is still very upset about Tigerclaw. So upset, she doesn't care about her clan. Of course, Tigerclaw does return, first striking a Thunderclan patrol with his rogue cats, killing a warrior, and again towards the end in a position of power. Graystripe, Fireheart's friend, has a small part in this book and meets Firheart at the side of the river. Ravenpaw also comes in, helping Fireheart and Sandstorm escape from Twoleg dogs and find a lost apprentice. Fireheart is getting used to his new position, but then a fire starts and the coming rain isn't enough to stop the fire or save a few clan members, who were trapped in the camp. This makes Bluestar even angrier with Starclan, and she refuses to go to the Gathering. Fireheart must go in her place, and he's in for a surprise when he's sees the new leader of another Clan. I can't wait for book five!

A book you will seriously not want to miss, even for dinnerFeb 29, 2004
This has got to be the best yet in the warrior's series. There is so much action, and so many plots, your head will be delightfully swimming!First off, Fireheart has some major new responsibilities, what with a new apprentice, being Tigerclaw's replacement, and Bluestar not being herself. Ravenpaw is one of my favorite characters, and he plays a larger role in Rising Storm. I sorely miss Graystripe, but you often forget he even exists with all the action. Cinderpelt begins to have doubts, and she is confused for a good section of this book. At the ThunderClan camp, there is a terrible disaster, and RiverClan plays a large role. I've barely told anything about this book, although it may not seem like it. The whole book is rich in characters, plots, and sub-plots. Even if I have told too much, you won't be missing out on any of the twists, turns, and action. Just try to put this book down! It will be hard!

The best book on earth!!!!!!!!!!!!Mar 29, 2005
Right when I read the prologue of the first book, I instantly fell in love. I have read the whole series, and each book just keeps getting better and better. They're better than Harry Potter, and any other book you can think of. Most people think it is stupid because they're talking cats! Take my friend for example. She made fun of me because i love the books, but when she started them she became just as obsessed as i am ( well, i don't think anybody can love the books as much as i do ). You have to read this book. you will love it. Almost every thing happens in this book. but read the first 3 before you start, or you won't understand it and you won't know most of the things they talk about.

Warriors: RIsing StormNov 21, 2004
This is my absolute favorite Warriors book, and I've read them all. In tis addition of Warriors, Bluestar is still severly shocked and learning about Tigerclaw's treachery, and it is up to Fireheart to protect ThunderClan.
I loved this book for the territfic characaters, the excellent plot and the cliffhanger ending. (A word of advice for readers: If you get Rising Storm, get A Dangerous Path, too, otherwise you'll be wondering and wondering what happens next.)
READ RISING STORM!!
