Rank the super editions! What is your favorite and least favorite? Why, or why not?
List of SEs: Moth Flight's Vision Tallstar's Revenge Yellowfang's Secret Bluestar's Prophecy Firestar's Quest Skyclan's Destiny Crookedstar's Promise Crowfeather's Trial Bramblestar's Storm Hawkwing's Journey Tigerheart's Shadow Squirrelflight's Hope Graystripe's Vow
My rank:
1) Squirrelflight's Hope - This book was very interesting to me because I felt the story was very interesting. A lot of cool stuff happened and I really enjoyed the tensions about the sisters
2) Moth Flight's Vision - This book is ranked 2nd because it also had a good story about Moth Flight. I also enjoyed her and Micah, and I liked how she sacrificed her kits to be a medicine cat that was focused.
3) Tigerheart's Shadow - Now I know we all hate Tigerheart but he did have a good SE. This had a good story, even though I didn't like Tigerheart's thinking and his personality.
4) Bramblestar's Storm - I liked this because Bramblestar really needed to reflect and reset after he became leader, and this really gave him a chance to do it, and I liked the story.
5) Hawkwing's Journey - I like Hawkwing a lot, and I like his thinking in tough times. He has lost a lot in his life, and I feel he adjusted and lived with what he had. The one problem I had was that I feel the book didn't have an end, and there was no conclusion, as they were still on the journey at the end of the book.
6) Firestar's Quest - This was the first SE I read, and I liked it but it has gotten worse as time went on, because this journey wasn't the best, but it was still interesting to see how Firestar started a clan from random cats.
7) Tallstar's Revenge - This was a good book of Tallstar's life and then his revenge just made it better. I liked his time with Jake but I also think there should have been a bit more plot in the majority of the book.
8) Graystripe's Vow - This was an ok book, I liked the journey but I do NOT like Graystripes thinking in tough situations.
9) Yellowfang's Secret - This was decent as well, as I didn't enjoy the small small things in it, but I enjoyed learning about how she managed struggles, etc.
10) Skyclan's Destiny - This was decent, but it was quite boring most of the time, though I enjoyed Leafstar and Billystorm
11) Crowfeather's Trial - This was basically just a book of Crowfeather's emotions and him reflecting on life, and then him starting to like Breezepelt. It was pretty boring...
12) Bluestar's Prophecy - I learned nothing new in this book, and it was just Bluestar's life, just a bit more detailed than what we already knew.
13) Crookedstar's Promise - Besides his promise, what happened in this book exactly? Nothing. Nothing happened besides him training in the DF, which is why this goes in last. Sorry Crookedstar fans.
So, what are your ratings? Which one do you like the most and least?
I decided not to make a poll for this post because there are WAY too many polls these days on wcrpforums.

1) Crookedstar's Promise
We got a lot more of Crookedstar's character, and his journey towards being leader of RiverClan. I really liked that!
2) Yellowfang's Secret
I always think of Victoria's Secret when I say this lol. But besides that, I enjoyed the book. I liked reading about Yellowfang's past life in ShadowClan.
3) Hawkwing's Journey
This book was heartbreaking! Hawkwing is a very loveable character too.
4) Firestar's Quest
This was the first SE I ever read, so it gets nostalgia points.
5) Bluestar's Prophecy
We got to see Snowfur! And baby Whitekit!
6) Moth Flight's Vision
I hate how she made a rule for all medicine cats just because she couldn't handle her own life, but I really liked getting an SE into the DoTC era.
7) Crowfeather's Trial
Breezepelt's "redemption" was completely out of nowhere, and it was terrible. But I liked seeing Crowfeather and Nightcloud get along peacefully, and NightcloudxPickle is kind of cool.
8) Bramblestar's Storm
This book was fine. I liked reading about Lilypaw and Seedpaw especially.
9) Tallstar's Revenge
What... what was this book about? It's forgettable.
10) SkyClan's Destiny
Hooray, SkyClan cats dropkick a man and some rats!
11) Tigerheart's Shadow
A whole SE dedicated to annoying Tigerheart and his annoying love-life with annoying Dovewing.
12) Squirrelflight's Hope
I like to pretend this book doesn't exist. What a mess. Everyone was OOC, Bramblestar was a ShadowClan-pleasing jerk, the Sisters were stupid, hated it. What was Squirrelflight hoping for? This book to get over with?
I haven't read Graystripe's Vow.

Yellowfang's Secret- this was the first SE I have read, why is this in bold

Firestar's Quest- I was really looking forward to Firestar's POV again, but I was disappointed.
Skyclan's Destiny- I have not read this SE
Crookedstar's Promise- Loved it
Crowfeather's Trial- I really enjoyed reading about what was happening in Thunderclan for another clan's POV. They were all acting like idiots.

1. Hawkwing's Journey - a tale of endless suffering finally getting concluded in the main series 2. Firestar's Quest - mostly just nostalgic to read 3. Tallstar's Revenge - great character arc 4. Crookedstar's Promise - good character development 5. Bluestar's Prophecy - broader storytelling of an alluded to narrative during the first arc 6. Moth Flight's Vision - important piece of clan history 7. Bramblestar's Storm - conclusion to the fourth arc with an unnecessary romance in it 8. Crowfeather's Trial - kind of underwhelming at times but still compelling enough 9. Yellowfang's Secret - an interesting story perspective with way to many continuity errors 10. Tigerheart's Shadow - retelling of already established drama 11. SkyClan's Destiny - sadly a bit too boring 12. Graystripe's Vow - kind of pointless and confusing 13. Squirrelflight's Hope - almost everyone was horrible in it

Ok here we go:
1. Crookedstar's Promise- I don't know if it was my first SE I read but it was just so cool to me as a kid because I loved Crookedstar and loved his growth as a character.
2. Hawkwing's Journey- I felt for Hawk man in this. At times it was boring but for the most part was action packed even if some of my favorite characters died off. Also Darktail.
3.Crowfeather's Trial- I loved Crow making up semi with Night and Breeze and the stats and I liked how Breeze got semi redeemed and he and Heather have a healthy relationship
4. Firestar's Quest- I enjoyed the idea of a fifth clan as a child and was constantly captivated everytime they discovered a new SkyClan descendant and new cat to join. I was always trying to find out who would become the leader or medicine cat before the roles were given to the respective characters.
5.Tigerheart's Shadow- I didn't really like TigerDove originally but it grew on me through the book. I liked Tigerheart's loyalty and devotion to Dove but also found him a bit brash. I liked Spiresight and Blaze and liked the kits when they were first introduced. I thought for a sheer second that two or all three kits would be important. Boy was I wrong.
6. Yellowfang's Secret- This was my first physical SE so it holds a special place in my heart. I liked the plot for the most part. I enjoyed the background characters like Nightpelt and Cloud(pelt?) I enjoyed Brokenkit's interest in medicine for the one second he had it. I don't remember much of YellowRags interaction so I can't really comment on that until I reread it.
7. Bluestar's Prophecy- Don't remember much besides Goosefeather screaming at Blue a lot. Didn't really like OakBlue that much. I wished ThrushBlue or CrookedBlue was a thing instead. I loved ThistleSnow and Whitekit. I liked Blue's kits and was sad when Mosskit died. But looking back on the book I found it ehh if I didn't remember that much compared to the other SEs.
8. Squirrelflight's Hope- This one is ok. The Sisters were interesting. I liked the Ashfur foreshadowing and Leafpool's death was bittersweet. Didn't like how they did Tigerstar though.
9. Tallstar's Revenge- Tall seemed a bit over reactive at times but I liked his friendship with Jake and Reena. I liked Woolytail and Sparrow was ok.
10. Moth Flight's Vision- Don't remember much from this SE but I know I loved Micah and the other med cats *besides Moth Flight she can burn* I found Moth Flight incredibly annoying and her actions somewhat impulsive. They should've made Dust Muzzle or Gorse Tail the protagonist.
11. Bramblestar's Storm- Don't remember anything else from this besides bits of the flood and Jessy. But Stormcloud exists so that's the only good thing in my opinion.
12. SkyClan's Destiny- Ya this was lame. All I can say.
I can't rate Graystripe's Vow as I haven't read it yet.

1) Crookedstar's Promise - I don't know what to say about this book that hasn't already been said. My favourite SE, and potentially my favourite book in the series.
2) Bluestar's Prophecy - Bluestar is a unique female protagonist in this series in that she's not made very relatable. She's taciturn and a little hypocritical, and her grief sometimes makes her act inconsiderately or harsh. This makes some people hate her as a narrator, but personally I loved her because of it.
3) Yellowfang's Secret - I know a lot of people hate this one, but I remember enjoying it. Yellowfang didn't need a power and the fact that she was given one is silly, but her power itself is actually really interesting. She suffered a lot, and I think it gives context to why she chose to see ThunderClan as her true home.
4) Moth Flight's Vision - I really wanted to like it, since I love DOTC and wanted to see a character with ADHD (which I have). But I just found it pretty boring, and eventually wound up skimming to important bits of lore instead of reading the whole thing.
5) Squirrelflight's Hope - Inconsistent characterization and bizarre continuity errors ruined this for me, and it's the only SE that I actively dislike. The fact that Squirrelflight and Leafpool had to go on trial for something they had already spent arcs atoning for was infuriating, but the concept of a StarClan trial was interesting. To its credit, the goodbye between Squirrelflight and Leafpool was heartbreaking and did make me kind of tear up. I just wished that scene had taken place in a better book.

Tigerheart’s Shadow- I really enjoyed this book take place in the city and I find the guardian cats really interesting, and Blaze is just so adorable in this book especially when he’s Spire’s little “sidekick” I was hooked with the struggles. The Tigerheart and Dovewing part of the book was cute, though the beginning of the book they were OOC and I loved their kits and bringing ShadowClan back together. (I also love this book since it’s kinda my resource to help me with my fanfic series I’m working on) Squirrelflight’s Hope- I loved the whole aspect with the sisters and Squilf’s relationship with Leafpool and Squilf speaking up for herself. (This book also shows the relationship between Bramble x Squirrel, I felt bad, Bramblestar needs to go) Hawkwing’s Journey- Just the entire story, it was really good, but it was too sad with all the deaths of 30 cats, I kinda wish the book had a much better ending where Twigpaw find SkyClan but it’s a good book overall. Moth flight’s Vision- I love the DOTC’s and this was a good book, the relationship between Moth flight and her family was cute, they did go a little overboard with her being pregnant at a young age though. Crowfeather’s Trial- This book was wholesome, with the redemption of the Breezepelt and the DF trainees, Crowfeather and Nightcloud making up and becoming friends, the situation with the stoats, this was a fun book. Graystripe’s Vow- I liked this book, especially with the return of BloodClan which I was surprised by, but I kinda wished they did more to it, the present time in the book was nice too with WarriorClan, they were awesome, hopefully we’ll see them again. Bramblestar's Storm- It was a nice sequel to OOTS, I like the plot of the flood and this is pretty much the only book where Bramblestar is nice. Tallstar’s Revenge- This is my favorite SE from the four original leader SE, I enjoyed the book but it started a little slow then the journey with Talltail and Jake had me hyped up. Crookedstar’s Promise- I enjoyed this book and it was fun but it was too sad for me. Yellowfang’s Secret- I really enjoyed reading about Yellowfang’s past but I’m not sure what was the point of her power and I didn’t like how Raggedstar treated her. Bluestar’s Prophecy- I pretty much know all about Bluestar’s past before reading this but it was a good read as a refresher. Firestar’s Quest- I did like this book, but it had a really slow start, and the Spottedleaf scenes were annoying, I did enjoy Firestar and Sandstorm rebuilding SkyClan though. SkyClan’s Destiny- This was an ok book, I wasn’t that hooked onto it and some scenes had some heart, and I was surprised this was the only SE with the P.O.V’s, but I don’t get the point of Stick and his chapters, it’s all about him worrying about his daughter and who she was dating, then ends up killing her on accident out of his anger, and the book started off with a slice-of-life style, which I wasn’t much hooked on, I felt bad for Leafstar because Sharpclaw was rude almost the entire time. I just wished that at least there was some character development, I wish Leafstar spoke for herself (I think she did but I don’t remember) and for Stick, instead of him just him killing his daughter, maybe just have him learn to manage his anger, and accept that his daughter has grown up and starting her own family. So I hope you guys enjoy my favorite to least favorite SE's.

I absolutely horrid at rating. I can't judge these stuff.
Crookedstar's Promise - His promise has depth, and his character development is interesting. Mapleshade's manipulation and Rainflower's neglection, Oakheart's support are all fascinating subjects, and his loss explains him.
Bluestar's Prophecy - Well, yes, it's about her life, but we know much more about her and her life. Her suffering and sorrows are unraveled here, and well, it explains a lot.
Hawkwing's Journey - Can I say I did not enjoy this at all?
SkyClan's Destiny - I'm just not interested in SkyClan.
Firestar's Quest - Firestar x Sandstorm x Spottedleaf love triangle and Firestar openly claiming he loved Sandstorm more was refreshing. The new SkyClan's start was a nice thing as well.
Yellowfang's Secret - Her superpower is ridiculous.
Tallstar's Revenge - I just wish Tallstar didn't suddenly 'feel' Palebird's love again when receiving his lives. When I first read the thing, I was so annoyed. But it was a good one.
Moth Flight's Vision - It's fine.
Tigerheart's Shadow - No idea.
Crowfeather's Trial - The redemption was stupid, no, the redemptions were stupid, and the stupid shoving of FeatherCrow was horrible.
Squirrelflight's Hope - Eek. BrambleSquirrel should've split on the spot.
Graystripe's Vow - No idea.
Bramblestar's Storm - Jessy was annoying. I didn't like it at all.
