About this book



Erin Hunter's #1 bestselling Warriors series continues! Discover more thrilling adventures in this third book in the Starless Clan arc.

A crossroads for the Clans--and the warrior code!

The warrior code now allows a cat to formally change Clans, but ShadowClan's newest arrival feels increasingly unwelcome--and though ShadowClan warrior Sunbeam thinks every cat deserves a chance, one of the loudest voices of opposition is her own mother. Meanwhile medicine cat apprentice Frostpaw scrambles to help RiverClan stay afloat under the watchful eye of a second Tigerstar, and the shadow of growing conflict looms over them all...

This seventh epic Warriors series is full of action, intrigue, and adventure--a perfect introduction for new readers and for long-time fans eager to discover what unfolds after the events of The Broken Code.
