A thrilling stand-alone adventure in Erin Hunter’s #1 nationally bestselling Warriors series!
Leopardpaw knows she is destined to be a great warrior who will save her Clan—and in a time of hardship, conflict, and loss, RiverClan desperately needs a leader who can guide them through an uncertain future. The ambitious ThunderClan deputy Tigerclaw believes he can help her fulfill her destiny, but as Leopardstar rises to follow in Crookedstar’s paw steps, she must decide what kind of leader she will be—one who maintains peace among the Clans, or one who is willing to sacrifice anything for the good of her own.
Bonus! Also includes an exclusive Warriors comic in the back matter.

Ohhhhh nooooo. Not only do we get another character forced to follow a lame prophecy/destiny, but also she's going to get manipulated by Tigerclaw?
Ughh I was hoping Leopard would be the one character who actually shapes her own life choices independently
It was bad enough knowing that she had a prophecy forcing her to make decisions, but now Tigerclaw? Man
Not going to buy this book from the sounds of it. I was planning to, but looks like it's yet another free pirate download

I'm still note sure how to feel about Leopardstar being the subject of a prophecy.

Yeah, the prophecy thing was revealed in another blurb, though I do get what you mean. But to be fair, with regards to Tigerclaw, I thought it was already pretty obvious he was manipulating her? Just because she made horrible choices doesn't mean he didn't manipulate her, it just means she chose to listen.

Well, atleast it isin't because she was in love with Tigerstar.

Oh cool! She's starting off as an apprentice, I hope we find more family relationships in RiverClan, and more about the cats. For some reason, I always thought Leopardstar was older than Tigerclaw though.

Guys, Leopardstar clearly wasn't an apprentice when she interacts with Tigerclaw, because it describes Tigerclaw as the ThunderClan deputy, and he became deputy after Leopardstar did. Barring a major inconsistency, that is, which is never out of the question.

For some reason, I always thought Leopardstar was older than Tigerclaw though. According to James, the actual story starts when she's Leopard kit. It must be like super editions like BP/CP, where there are a couple of chapters from their POV when they are kittens before their apprenticeship starts.

For those saying something about Leopardstar being part of a prophecy, I feel like we had heard about her being part of a prophecy before this? Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but I vaguely remember Mudfur being told that his daughter had some kind of great destiny or something like that?
I'm honestly looking forward to this SE. I like the SE's that give background on a character as opposed to some current events surrounding them. I find those a lot more interesting. And I feel like Leopardstar is one of those cats who we don't have a lot of background on - what must it be like growing up without a mother and knowing your father gave up his warrior life to become a medicine cat?

Can't wait to see her leader ceremony. It's something I always want to see and look forward to. Hopefully she meets her mother, Brightsky. Her apprentice ceremony was in CP, but her warrior ceremony might be here as well.

I hope this wont turn into like "tigerclaw grooms leopardpaw throughout her apprenticeship" like a certain other book.. \ Doubt it considering they are around the same age. According to the events timeline on the wiki both Leopard and Tiger were born in the same Greenleaf.

Tigerstar did entice and manipulate Leopardstar canonly though, he convinced her that them joining their clans would be for the greater good and future of both of their clans. Plus Leopardstar (although I don't know if this has been outdated yet) thought she'd have a future with Tigerstar at some point too, but realized that wasn't the case. So I don't think it's another Spottedleaf's Heart situation. Also not all "destinies" mean they're tied in with a prophecy. A destiny can still just be one's own view of the path they're walking, you can believe you're destined for something and not be told you are. In Leopardstar's case, who knows, but I don't think it'll be a heavy theme for her either way. Either way, I'm curious to see where this will go. It's finally nice to see inside of Leopardstar's head, especially since she wholefully regrets her actions and still carried the weight of her sins up until her death. I'm excited to see more.

Here's the earlier blurb from just a few weeks ago.

Huh, I wonder why the blurbs are so different? Because this one doesn't mention any prophecy whatsoever. Interesting. Anyway, despite how much I dislike Leopardstar, I can't wait to get in her head. I hope that the Erins will be able to write a good complex character this time around.

How much do you guys want to bet that Mudfur is the prologue protagonist?

How much do you guys want to bet that Mudfur is the prologue protagonist? That seems likely. Maybe it'll even start when Brightsky dies. Or maybe we could go the BP route and it'll start with Leopardstar's death.
