Would anyone else be interested in a novella about him? We've never experienced his POV and I'm soooo curious as to what the heck was going on in his twisted mind throughout his reign. I doubt we'll get this, but it would still be awesome imo.

For once, that isn't a bad idea for a novella or an SE. People always suggest more Thunderclan when the other clans are severely neglected in POVs. I stan.

I don't trust Clarissa to do him justice, honestly.

Vicky once mentioned wanting to write a SE on Brokenstar so he would be "a fully realised character with some sympathetic traits so we can understand him better", so the idea's already out there. A novella might be better for him since I fear a full on SE would just rehash previous events, albeit from Brokenstar's perspective.
Honestly though, I'm very interested in actually seeing his perspective on things and make him a more fleshed out villain and not the cookie-cutter bad guy he was, and a novella could just do that.

I would LOVE a novella on Brokenstar. I wouldn't mind reading a novella from the other villains either. Would read a Hawkfrost novella, Darktail novella or even a Shredtail one. (Not Darkstripe I ain't interested in him)
I would be interested in what route the novella would take though. Would it portray Brokenstar being absolutely rageful in the inside? How would the novella show us the inner workings of Brokenstar's mind?

Brokenstar exists as an embodiment of evil. I don't think his point of view is helpful in elucidating that, and if anything makes him feel less like an alien existence.

I've never found him to be an interesting character, but perhaps it could be nice to read about him in his own pov.

I don't think he was ever truly meant to have any redeeming qualities. I also agree with the fact that he'd be better suited for a novella, given that we know enough about him from Yellowfang's perspective in her SE. (Unpopular opinion, but I like her SE. I just finished rereading it and that's what gave me the idea of a Brokenstar novella.) I just want to know his motivations and reasoning behind the choices he made. None of that was clarified, other than him being "rage-filled" and "battle-hungry". And even then, Yellowfang's perspective is skewed, given that she's his mother and still had love for him in spite of what a menace he was. I just think getting to see what he was thinking during that time would be incredibly interesting.
