Sukupolvien ajan neljä villikissojen klaania – Myrskyklaani, Jokiklaani, Tuuliklaani ja Varjoklaani – on jakanut metsän soturiesi-isiensä säätämien lakien mukaan. Muiden klaanien reviirejä uhkaava Varjoklaani kuitenkin voimistuu päivä päivältä, ja Myrskyklaanin kissat ovat vakavassa vaarassa. Uljaita sotureita kuolee, ja jotkut varsin salaperäisellä tavalla. Keskelle näitä tapahtumia ilmestyy tavallinen kotikissa nimeltä Ruska – joka saattaa osoittautua Myrskyklaanin kaikkein urheimmaksi soturiksi.

my goodness what a hoot this book is. It’s pure melodramatic fluff that somehow still managed to suck me in for its silliness and constant meowing and hissing and purring
So we bought this book and the second in the series on a whim for my oldest boy to read. It turned out a good pick because since he's started reading them, it's all he talks about now. Lately, though, he keeps asking for me to read it. "I think you'll like it, Mommy." "Have you read the book yet, Mommy?" So, I guess it's time to read at least a few of the books. Here's to reading a book based on you child's recommendation.
So, turns out this is a decent read. I can definitely see the appeal for a child reading this. In fact, a lot of the young adult novels I read when I was around my son's age were very similar in plot and themes. I remember those books filling me with dreams of adventure and excitement. This book is definitely a good book to recommend …
