the Warriors come roaring back,
By Melanie Edwards "book worm" (Commerce, MI) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
though i loved The New Prophecy, i had to say that the original flare of the novels died down in Twilight. but now, Hunter has gone back to her original roots and produce The Sight, the first book in the new series that brings back the old charm of the original Warriors books. it has been a few moons since the events of Sunset and the clans have finally begun to settle in there new lake home. Jaykit, Hollykit, and Lionkit all have some pretty big paws to fill. they are the grandchildren of the legendary Thunderclan leader Firestar and the offspring of Brambleclaw and Squirrleflight. it is only a matter of time until they become full fledged apprentices. the interesting thing is, each one of the kits seem to possess a strange power that manifests itself diffrently in each kit and it seems these powers will be put to the test. unbenoust to them, a dark force is stirring. a threat aimed against those not clan-born but what? what is this new evil that threatens the forest? it is only a matter of time until it strikes. Hunter wastes no time in getting us familier with the new characters and even in the first couple of chapters throws in some surprises and delectible conflicts. it truley is a rebirth of the series and the end only promises more to come. a great first entry into a already great series, a must for all Warrior fans.

Magnificent New Series--SPOILER ALERT,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
Hollypaw, Jaypaw, and Lionpaw come out of the strong legacy of Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw's children. It is interesting to follow the main character's of the first series of warriors grandchildren around in the new territory. Firestar, the noble sleek ruler of ThunderClan, once a mere kittypet, is the grandfather of the three apprentices. Yet the don't have only good in their blood. Brambleclaw's father was Tigerstar, the ambitious traitor who last resided in ShadowClan.
Jaypaw is a blind gray tom with feather blue eyes, who thinks he is worthless. When Brightheart, a sweet, but one-eyed she-cat is appointed his mentor for a warrior, he thinks even lower of himself. He realizes he can see other cats in their dreams. Then he learns his destiny is to be a medicine cat. He becomes Leafpool's apprentice as a medicine cat. Hollypaw is a bright black she cat with green eyes. She origionally wants to be a medicine cat but she realizes that she is not cut out to do so, but is fantastic at battling and fight moves. She has not shown any affection to any cats, so readers have no clue on any future mates. Lionpaw is a ginger tom with amber eyes like his father and Tigerstar. He is bright. Lionpaw is a little conceited at some point, but all in all he is pretty nice. This new edition to the warriors series is amazing and something all fans should look foward to reading more of.

You don't have to be a kid to love the Warrior Cats,

This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
I am 54 yrs. old and a grandmother. A year ago I was unemployed and was at the bookstore and they had one of the Warrior Cat books on display up front. I am a huge cat/dog lover and I foster cats for a local rescue. Well, I couldn't put these books down. I bought one after another. I hadn't been to the bookstore in awhile as I am working again. Last night I bought The Sight and I can hardly wait to read it this weekend. I'm addicted and I know this book will be just as good as the first. For young and old alike...read The Warrior Cat books....they are delightful!!! Kudos to Erin Hunter for providing an intermediate book series so entertaining to adults...I am reminded of the years I spent in Study Hall reading horse and dog books and I still cry when anything sad happens!!

WOW!,
By Ellen Marie (USA) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
I think this was one Erin's best books. Here is how it goes Jaypaw, Lionpaw and Hollypaw are the children of Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight niece and nephews to Leafpool and grandchildren to Firestar and Sandstorm and Tigerstar and Goldenflower. Jaypaw, Hollypaw and Lionpaw have powers no other cats before them have had. Hollypaw becomes a medicine cat apprentice but she soon learns she would rather be a regular apprentice and like Lionpaw so Jaypaw becomes the medicine apprentice. Jaypaw is grumpy all the time because he is blind and he thinks cats thinks he can not be good his clan like that. There is hint in this book that Lionpaw and Heaterpaw a windclan apprentice are in love. This book is thrilling and a must read

Two Tumbs Way Up,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
In Warriors Power of Three: Book 1: The Sight by Erin Hunter, Hollypaw, Jawpaw and Lionpaw are born with a strong heritage. Their father is Brambleclaw, deputy of Thunderclan and their mother is Squirrelflight, daughter of the famous Thunderclan leader, Firestar. As the three kits become apprentices, important decisions must be made for their future. Though the life of a warrior sounds exciting, Hollypaw wishes to train to be Thunderclan's next Medicine Cat. Lionpaw knows for certain his destiny follows the path of a warrior, and there is nothing more Jawpaw wants then being a warrior. Hollypaw begins to have second thoughts about her choice when she can't seem to rember the names of the herbs and which one does what. Young Jaypaw doesn't want to give up on being a warrior, even though his blindness is a hard obstacle to overcome. But Starclan seems to have other plans when they give Jaypaw a powerful gift no other living cat has, but he his gift would mean give up on his dream of life as a warrior. All the while Shadowclan seem to be closing in, and an old, surprising face returns.
I loved this book; it was a great addition to my favorite series. The plot was so great and this book is hard to put down. As said before, a beloved character everyone though was lost returns, which made me very pleased. This book has a lot of cliff hangers, making you want to read more and more. I saw defiantly read this book, and all the books in the Warriors series.

Erin Hunter is losing her touch...,
By Gavin "Because I'm evil" (Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
The first series of warriors were the best books i have ever read. Firestar made a very likable main character, with a wide variety of great characters throughout, either challenging him or helping him. Tigerstar was a chillingly evil villain, that really made the danger seem real. The second series saw almost all the remaining characters of the first series die, leaving us with some new and not very well developed characters. Brambleclaw was a cool main charcter, and the third person narrative around Brambleclaw in Twighlight and Dawn was almost like seeing what Tigerstar felt when he was trying to take over Thunderclan. But it still wasn't as good as the first series. Now we have another series of Warriors that has went another generation away from Firestar. Actually i was surprised by how much the style of this series was like that of the first one. i think that all of the Warriors books are worth a read, and if Erin Hunter continues to write this way, she may save her novels from coming to a very boring end.

The Sight,
By Crystal "♥" (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
I just read it, and I'm proud to say that it's definitely worth the read! In The Sight, the kits of Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw, Jaypaw, Hollypaw, and Lionpaw, are the narrators instead of Firestar. They all have a responsibility to play in order to save their Clan, and they each possess a special talent that will help them. The lives of Jaypaw, Lionpaw, and Hollypaw start a whole 'nother prophecy and the weight of the forest rests in their paws. While the Clans go about their daily routines, an unexpected warrior who the Clans thought was dead makes a surprise visit to ThunderClan with a kittypet. There are many twists and conflicts that make this book the most original of all of the Warriors books ever.
All in all, this was an amazing book! I totally loved how there were so many new characters and the same old ones that we all loved. There is betrayal, enemies from the previous series, and so many old and new secrets to be revealed! To anyone who is a fan of the Warrior series, if you read this new book, I guarantee that you won't be disappointed.

SPOILER!,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
AH this book was sooo good! unlike some people I actually liked the New Prophecy but there was less action and more soap...
Anyways in this book, Lionpaw, Hollypaw, and Jaypaw are children of Squirrelflight and Brambleclaw, and grandchildren of Firestar and Tigerstar, the most influential cats of all time. Lionpaw can hunt really well and HOllypaw wanted to be a medicine cat but then she like abandons it cause she hates it. BUt Jaypaw ends up a medicinec cat bc he is blind!! and he can enter other cats dreams and hear their thoughts. Jaypaw is for sure the main character. Of course i noticed allt he old conflicts. Squirrelflight is not exactly a sit-back-and-relax nursery cat (unlike Ferncloud and Daisy) and the book says she goes bak to her warrior duties soon after kits are born. And ashfur is not hostile towards Brambleclaw anymore and is more like te responsible Ashfur than the mean and jealous one of SUNSET. but he still gives subtle hints of his bitterness... longtail is probably gonna be a major character bc he is blind like Jaypaw too! And Graystripe comes back with a kittypet warrior!!! horray everyone wanted this to happen! but Brambleclaw remains deputy but Jaypaw thinks he is suspicious towards his clan but obviously cuz at the end o Sunset Hawkfrost told brambleclaw that one of his clanmates helped almost kill Brambleclaw and Firestar! and Crowfeather had a kit named breezepaw with Nightcloud but there are obvious hints that he still loves Leafpool and Leafpool still loves him. and Lionpaw has a crush on a WindClan apprentice named Heatherpaw... but the book is amazing when looked at cuz Jaypaw has powerful powers and he fur sure has greatness in his destiny. he even figured out mothwings not a medicine cat and spottedleaf loves firestar! he can do a lot.. except he's like really mad about being blind and hates being a medicine cat bc he cant be awarrior. i think he'd make a great medicinec cat! he can smell the herbs and infected wounds and go where starclan can't go! and feel other cats' thoughts. amazing.

Great Book,

This review is from: The Sight (Warriors: Power of Three, Book 1) (Hardcover)
I really liked the new Warriors book! I can't wait until the next book comes out. This book is by far Hunter's best book. Jaypaw, the main character, is angry most of the time because he believes his clanmates think he is weak. Jaypaw, Hollypaw and Lionpaw are the grandchildren of Firestar, Sandstorm, Goldenflower and Tigerstar, from previous books. And they are the children of Brambleclaw and Squirrelflight. Hollypaw becomes the medicine cat apprentice, but then realizes she has special abilities as a fighter just as Lionpaw is a fine hunter and Jaypaw has mysterious powers with StarClan.
