Hello friends! It's good to be back. I really enjoyed Veil of Shadows! It's the best TBC book by far. It also leaves me with an important question.
Do you think that Squirrelflight will be a POV in Darkness Within, or will it be Bristlefrost, Shadowsight, and Rootspring again? There are reasons to expect both, but I hope it's Squirrelflight. It would be simply fantastic to see her perspective on Ashfur's return.

Hello Basement Cat, it’s been a long while. You’ve always had something interesting to say. I hope we get Squirrelflight back to do a few POVs but not entirely. I want to see her perspective again in the main series and how she’s dealing with these spiraling events. My concern though is that it might make the story POV crowded and bloated but we NEED that POV.

I hope it's Squirrelflight.

If she does get one, I imagine it'd be in the prologue, though I suppose it'd be nice if she had one in the main story.

If she does get a POV (personally, I hope she doesn't get one) I think it'll be like Night Whispers and she'll just get a POV for one book this arc, while keeping Root/Bristle/Shadow as POV characters.

I don't think that she will get one, Bristlefrost is in Thunderclan and if Squirrelflight gets banned she will most likely follow this time.
A prologue however could happen.
And to be honest I am already tired of Squirrelflight PoV we just had a SE with her.

I'm a bit torn on this one. On one hand, I'm worried that Squirrelflight's POV would take a lot of attention away from Shadow, Root, and Bristle who've all been great so far. However, judging by who the impostor most likely is, having Squirrel's POV would add so much more tension to the plot.
So really I think it'd be just fine either way, as long as they balanced the characters well.

Ooooh, I hadn’t thought about that before, but now that you bring it up - I’m intrigued by the possibility! :-D
Then again, if Squirrelflight had a POV, I’d be concerned that it would leave less room for the other main characters to have relevant plot lines. (Especially Bristlefrost.) I swear whenever the series has 4 POV’s, one tends to dawdle. :-P

I'm down to have a Suqirrelflight POV. It would just add more to the story because Ashfur is clearly doing this for Squirrel, and getting a reaction from her would make the story much more interesting.

I think it could work. I've always enjoyed her perspective, so personally I wouldn't mind it, but I feel like it's time for new characters to have spotlight instead of bringing the old TNP cast back in again.

Hey, welcome back!
I always assumed she would based on the blurb for Darkness Within.

Part of me would want to see he POV but in all reality I don't think it should happen. I think more than three POVs would be too much and I don't want them to take away a POV from a different character. The reason I say that is we get more as a reader when they give us POVs from different clans and I don't see the point of changing the ThunderClan POV from Bristlefrost. The best thing they could do is have the prologue be the last little bit of VOS but from Squirrelfligh's POV and then her also saying who the impostor is. After that the book should stay with Shadowsight Rootspring and Bristlefrost.

I don't think she needs one. If we get too many POVs going then it gets difficult to give anyone good character development, which was a common complaint during Omen of the Stars. One chapter or a prologue would be fine, but I hope that's all.

Welcome back! I think it would be weird if Squirrelflight was not a POV for book four, given her heavy presence in the blurb. Maybe it’s a solo Squirrel book. It’s unlikely, but not impossible. Personally hoping she gets one, given that Ashfur is likely the impostor, it would make things really interesting.
