With this life, I give you clarity and perspective. Even when you're swept up in emotion, be aware of the situation as it truly is. The weather is too bad to try returning home in the days afterward: the river's too swollen and the Thunderpath is too dangerous. Drizzle's getting restless, but Riverstar doesn't mind waiting a bit. He spends time with Finch, and starts to feel that he belongs right there, with Finch. A moon passes since they'd first left, with the weather still not improving, and during that time, they officially become mates. It turns out that Finch doesn't want to leave while Riverstar doesn't want to stay, but for now they still have to wait until the river drops. The Apprentice's Quest • Thunder and Shadow • Shattered Sky • Darkest Night • River of Fire • The Raging Storm The magic and mystery of Riverstar as a unique and slightly eccentric character has been completely wiped away with this book. There's a whole lot more needless love drama I didn't care to read about. A lot of this book (about 50%) is just downright recycled plot elements from Dawn of the Clans but this time from Riverstar's POV. Skystar is still the worst (nothing new there, I suppose). The book feels drawn-out and doesn't really get interesting until past the 50% point when we enter "new" territory with Riverstar going to aid his old parkmates and feeling torn between his homes.

Dead Person Conversation: The spirits of the recently-deceased cats appear after the battle at The Four Trees, as well as in a dream to the leaders not long afterward.
