Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #2: Spirit Walker by Michelle Paver
The second book of the wicked series, Chronicles of Ancient Darkness, Spirit Walker unlocks a life changing secret. It has you on the edge of your seat, staring at the book, rushing to read but you are rushing so the words are a big jumble. The scene moves away from the beloved Forest, to the rough-and-tumble Sea Islands. Fantasy breaks its chain and things here are like nothing you could ever imagine. I give a pat-on-the-back to Michelle for this great book. 5 Stars.
Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #3: Soul Eater by Michelle Paver
Soul Eater brings you deep into the story – fantasy has gone wild! A forest of stone, demons, spirits, and cold fire. It’s like you are really there, forced to break the promise to the World-Spirit and climbing through tunnels smaller than you are, facing freezing temperatures. I love this book! Its chock-full of action: one baddie is not how it seems, a beloved character gets part of him cut off, and there is heart-break and joy. 5 stars.

Chronicles of Ancient Darkness #1: Wolf Brother by Michelle Paver
It is the kind of book you want to read. It is set ages ago after the ice-age, but before, let’s say, our time. It is the first book in the series and it is really good, with drama and nail-biting tension. It’s the kind of book that you would sit in a chair and read. It’s the kind of book that’s awesome. 5 Stars.

Warriors Book #6: The Darkest Hour by Erin Hunter
It’s a really good book with action and fantasy. It has words that are easy, and makes you feel like you are really there. It’s packed with action and juicy secrets. I want to read it again! 4 Stars.

Into the Wild: Warriors #1 by Erin Hunter
This is a great book for all ages. Rusty is a kittypet. He keeps having dreams about venturing into the forest at the edge of his owner’s property - until one day he does. He meets Bluestar, the leader of Thunderclan. But will all the warriors in the clan be loyal? 5 Stars.

Night Whispers: Warriors: Omen of the Stars #3 by Erin Hunter
Jayfeather, Lionblaze and Dovepaw have managed to get an in-training DarkForest warrior on their side. Ivypaw is scared, and has almost died many times in the DarkForest, but Brokenstar tests her loyalty for the DarkForest in the worst test there can be. Dovepaw still has her heart set for Tigerheart, but does he have his heart set for her, or for the DarkForest? 5 stars.

A Dangerous Path: Warriors Book #5 by Erin Hunter
It had lots of action in it, and the death of Bluestar. Greystripe returns to ThunderClan and the dog pack attacks. Brightpaw loses half of her face and becomes Lostface, but Cloudtail looks after her. Swiftpaw dies, and more drama is in the book. I loved it so much. A good read. 5 stars!

Dawn by Erin Hunter
This is a awesome book! It was the first book in the series that I read (I never read in order), and I was like Firestar when he first came into the forest: I learnt quickly and it drew me in. I can’t stop reading it! You should read it too! I would give it five hundred stars if I was allowed. 5 stars.
