Anything sooner than TBC#6 is cutting off the plot too early.

Anything sooner than TBC#6 is cutting off the plot too early. Agreed..but clearly most cats already know what the problem is...so are they supposed to plan how to kill him, trial and error, for the next 3-4 books? Lots of filler needed

Hopefully the fake Bramblestar will be gone in #6 and not sooner. AVOS suffered from early villain death, and I don't want TBC to be like that.

6 would be nice, but 5 is fine too.

I would like, since we're dealing with more supernatural elements in this arc than we have previously, if the possessor was defeated/exorcised from Bramblestar in book 4, but doing so released some unholy demonspawn upon the Clans and suddenly they have a much bigger problem to deal with that isn't resolved until book 6.
It's a want, not a prediction.

Considering that TBC and TST have escalated pretty quickly, it might follow the same pattern as AVoS. (Book three being really interesting and chaotic, and the rest of the arc being mainly filler.) I really hope this doesn't happen again bc it got stale and boring after Skyclan moved for the 100th time after Shattered Sky. But then, OOtS and PoT were stale and boring until the drama/battles in the last book. I'm hoping the sixth book, but I hope the storyline doesn't get boring by the final book.

I hope he is defeated in the third book and then it turns out the problem is far bigger than just one possessor...
I feel like the Erins' whole "have a big thing happen at the end of book 3" thing can work perfectly well if they have a plan for how that all leads to an even greater threat in the second half. Like what happened in the original series - Tigerclaw got discovered and exiled, Brokenstar was killed, yet the whole thing didn't descend into filler for the next half of the series.

If he dies in book 3, which it seems like he will at the rate it’s going (he’d better not) there’s a high chance this arc will become AVoS 2.0. HC better not do this to us

HC better not do this to us What I'm saying is there's not an inherent problem with a big part of the plot being resolved in book 3, the only problem is when the Erins don't have any other plan afterwards. I used the original series as an example of how you can do that and make it work well with raising the stakes for the second half (which they could do if Fakebramblestar isn't the only or main villain in the end), and AVOS is obviously an example of how they could do that and mess everything up because they did intend Fakebramblestar as the main and only villain.

6 would be nice, but 5 is fine too. If he was gone by the end of 5 and 6 explored the aftermath, I’d be cool with that.

What if the possessor isn't the main big bad? What if he's just a stepping stone to something MUCH worse?

I mean, dont you guys think TST went faster than you expected??? It was a great book, I just wished it had gone slower to ensure the possesor would stay as the villain as long as possible. It seems that the entire forest will know the truth by VOS. If they don't kill him in the same book or next, theyll just include filler like in AVOS....probably involving cats leaving the Clans by their own will due to StarClan's absence based of Daisy's article on the Hub Even if “Bramblestar” is revealed, I still think there’s a lot to explore with the fact that cats can be possessed. For instance, the Clans are probably going to be super paranoid on if there’s any more cats that could be possessed (I think the ending of TST indicates there will be) or accuse their leaders of being possessed just because they said something unpopular (a possible uprising?) Expanding further on that last hypothetical situation, some cat could take advantage of the mass hysteria (whether out of fear or malicious intent) and wait for their leader to make just one slightly deviant choice to brand him as a possessed leader who needs to be overthrown. And that’s just a few out of many possible plot lines .

Poor Bramblestar spending 6 books in limbo...Would HC be so cruel?

Perhaps book 5 and book 6 will be clans having to deal with their realtionship with starclan
also we get squirrelstar who is FED UP with starclan and is the leader we need and deserve

While I would LOVE for it to be book 6, it's almost certainly going to be next book, based on their recent track record...

But some people here have said that HC won’t make the same mistake again because they are aware about the fans reaction to Darktail being killed off early. But are they really aware? What proof do we have? TST went unusually fast after all? Since when does HC listen to the readers? I hope it’s book 6 though

So many people know and have accepted that Brashstar is false by the end of TST that I'm nervous about how much longer they can ride this out.
I honestly don't mind if Brashstar is "defeated" in VoS as long as the big baddy mystery voice who's behind all this sticks around until book 5 or 6.
