Leopardstar, if only because I really want another RiverClan PoV and I find her to be more interesting than Onestar (although I wouldn't mind him getting his own story eventually). I'm kinda surprised Blackstar is an even an option though, considering he's getting his own novella anyway.

These are some...questionable choices. Blackstar's already going to get a novella that same year. I guess Onestar or Leopardstar could be interesting. SE14 is Kate's book, and she's mentioned that Leopardstar is her favorite Clan leader and would love to write about her. So, if Leopardstar wins, I think that'd be a win.
Really feels like the editors are scraping the bottom of the bucket here. We've known these cats for years! I'd love to read something about someone more obscure.

oh boy why not someone like Darktail, where we hardly know his background/backstory? although if we get a Onestar super edition (please no) it might be about him and Smoke, which would be at least kind of interesting?

I'm sure you all know and think its time for Mistystar to kick the bucket at this point, and I can't see her living past TBC, and SE14 will be released between TBC 5 and 6 (near the end of this arc). I think its very likely that whoever is the next RC deputy (not Reedwhisker please) will get the SE. HC even said in a previous email that they are aware the fans want a RC SE.And they have been listening to us lately
EDIT: WTF I didnt click on that link...why oh why can't they make modern-day RC relevant again? Obviously not Blackstar, as he's getting a novella. A Onestar SE will make my blood boil for 500 pages, with traitor talk, even though I want to understand why he betrayed Firestar and if he feels any remorse like Kate says he did, but tahts suited for a novella. And like everyone else, I want RiverClan. I got nothing against Leopardstar, so she better get it.

Leopardstar would arguably be the best one, though I do not know what they could possibly focus on. We already know much of her life, so what would there be to explore. With Onestar, I absolutely hate that guy, and I feel like they're going to try more redemption bullshit, but nothing can exactly redeem him in my eyes. Alas, those two are the best options. Blackstar's already getting a novella; we do not need an SE on top of that.
Tl;dr, all these options suck in some kind of way, imo.

Like Tomless said, feels like they’re scraping the bottom of the bucket here, I’m a bit tired of having super editions on past-POV characters, or ones whose entire lives we essentially know ... they always seem to make for a long book with little substance. That being said, I think Leopardstar is the best choice out of those three, since Blackstar is already getting his own novella. And it’s due time for another RiverClan POV! And it’ll be interesting to see her internal thoughts on Stonefur’s execution. Though I wish there was a write-in option. :-P

I voted for Onestar. Blackstar is getting a novella, and I really could not care less about Leopardstar. NOTHING about her is interesting to me, except for maybe the fact that she's Mudfur's daughter.

Voted for leopardstar because we’re getting a blackstar novella already and onestar is trash

Ugh. I am not impressed with these choices. At all. Why is Blackstar even an option? He's already getting his own novella! And Leopardstar and Onestar? That's the best they could come up with? I'm going with Leopardstar, but only for the RiverClan POV. I dislike all three of these characters and it sucks that these are the options we're given. If you like these leaders though, good, hope you like whatever book ends up being published more than me.

If there must be another RiverClan super edition, I'd rather it be on one of the current RiverClan cats, not Leopardstar. I've never liked her.
Blackstar's already getting a novella, so he doesn't need a super edition.
I kind of want to know if Onestar regretted being a jerk. He doesn't need to be "redeemed".

I complained to Enquiries@workingpartnersltd.co.uk about the bad options for this poll. Hopefully, with more people protesting these choices, they choose someone not on this list/give us a new updated poll You emailed them to complain? I know we're all mildly disappointed with the choices here but I think emailing WP themselves just to bitch about the choices is overstepping a bit and just plain rude.

I really dislike all these options, Blackstar because he's getting a novella, and the other two sound like an unbearable read. I only voted for Leopardstar since I just want another RiverClan SE. Honestly, I have no idea where they get these ideas for SEs from.

W... wait a second.
Why, why is everyone so disappointed?? I get that some may not like the options but ever since I got here I saw many complaints about how the SE's now were focusing on modern cats and that a Leopardstar, Onestar or Blackstar SE would be neat. I'm truly surprised.

Woofzie The problem I have with the Leopardstar choice, is that she's not really that appealing as a character, at least not to me, and if there was going to be a RiverClan POV, I'd rather it be about CURRENT RiverClan cats. We basically know NOTHING about current RiverClan, aside from their leader, deputy, and medicine cat. RiverClan is also getting a manga that..also takes place in the old forest. I just want something about current RiverClan.

I dislike Leopardstar but a SE about her would be really interesting and help to understand her more.

WoofzieThat's a good point, I still wish Onestar would win, because then we could see both older WindClan and newer WindClan, since he died not that long ago. I'm also curious to see what was going through his head during his leadership, also his thoughts on Darktail and Smoke, and how all that happened. Another cool thing if Onestar got an SE, is that we might find out who the parents of Kestrelflight and Harestar are, and who else are the kits of Onestar and Whitetail, because there's no way that Heathertail could have been her kit from when she was a queen in Firestar's Quest.

out of these leopardstar is the best choice imo. we're so lacking in riverclan content. i wish they'd offer less known characters, though

These options are terrible. I saw this post and got excited thinking about the options they chose, thinking they would be good. But nah.
Instead, we have a character who's already getting a novella the same year (one who didn't need it anyway), an infuriating character, and a character who's supposedly had this "secret crush" on Tigerstar, which you know they'll make it all about that. Sigh.

Yup, awful options. Why would we need a SE about Blackstar? He's already getting a novella. And I can't stand Leopardstar and Onestar. As much as I want a RiverClan PoV I really don't want to read about Leopardstar. Maybe a Onestar SE could be interesting... a character who's supposedly had this "secret crush" on Tigerstar, which you know they'll make it all about that. Sigh. Another reason why I don't want Leopardstar. But uh... when was it ever stated that she had a crush on Tigerstar? I don't remember reading anything about it in the books but everyone is talking about it. Is this something that was said by the authors? Seriously, I keep hearing about Leopardstar being in love with Tigerstar but never saw anything that confirms it. So I'm a little confused about that.

It was later stated in The Ultimate Guide

Ah, okay. Thanks, Uмвяᴀ . I don't have The Ultimate Guide so I didn't know about that. It kinda makes me even more disappointed in Leopardstar. What is it with female characters screwing up partly because of (romantic) love? Yes, it's done with male characters too but it seems to happen to she-cats more often. Or maybe I'm just imagining it.
