Warriors Graphic Novel: The Prophecies Begin #1

I got into reading Warrior Cats in 6th grade in 2010 when I found the Graystripe manga. Never reading a book prior or knowing anything about this series. The art, characters, and story pulled me in. That book and Graystripe have been my favorite since, I read every Warrior’s manga and book after that. To this day I’m beginning to slowly grow my Warrior Cat’s collection to show my support and love for this series.I won’t lie, I wasn’t sure about this revival and new art style. Even going back to the first book/series. Will they cut out important parts? Will they change the characters I know and love? What if it isn’t like the first time baby Brooke found a cool looking cat manga in a middle school library. Reading it and being pulled into the world, becoming a warrior herself with how much she was pulled in. Fighting, healing, leading, and grieving each of them. Well….It pulled me back to that time and it was all new to me again. Erin Hunter chose the right people to revive the series with this adaptation. The more I read the more I slowed down because it was getting close to the end. I wanted more. More of this art and story, curious what was going to happen next. When I already know what to expect. There was a longing of wanting more and a dread for the end of this manga. I loved every second, minute, and hour this graphic novel has given me. I’m definitely pre-ordering the Yellowfang one next, Hardcover again as well. Because the art and details is amazing! I can’t describe the beauty in words just sitting here gushing at it. Also, I took a picture of a bonus page to show how much thought and love they put into this. There’s a bit more bonus pages but I’m not spoiling that.Buy this book and make it a hardcover, you’ll be reading this book over and over again. You’re gonna want a strong book to make it last longer 😅 I hope the artists do a signing soon cause I want them to sign this. They’re in Texas as well, so they won’t be too far for that. ❤️☺️Be it a long time reader or new, this is a great book for Warrior fans. Join the world and enjoy this amazing art-thrilling adventure.

Great book and illustrations. It’s very fun to see the classic Warriors characters illustrated. Faithfully follows the original story of the first few books. Highly recommend for warriors fans and new readers alike.That said, even though it features cute cats, there is fighting and violence, so it might not be suitable for all audiences.

I really enjoyed this graphic novel. It provided a clearer understanding of the events and settings, and I especially appreciated seeing the ThunderClan camp. The description of the camp often changes, so having a visual representation was really helpful. Another positive is that this graphic novel combines two books into one, which is great for quickly progressing through the first series. I'm particularly excited to see the next two series adapted into graphic novel form, although I doubt Long Shadows and Sunrise will be released anytime soon!That said, I really liked this graphic novel and am eagerly looking forward to the next one in April, featuring Yellowfang on the cover.However, there are a few drawbacks to mention. One issue I had was with the artwork. Firestar looks more like a pampered house cat than the strong, noble leader I envision. In other graphic novels, like A Thief in ThunderClan or Graystripe's Adventure, Firestar’s portrayal is more regal and fitting for a leader. But in this book, he just doesn’t even look like a warrior. It's not just him, though, it's all of the drawings. For example, the Yellowfang and Silverstream artwork highly dssappointed me. Yellowfang looks completely different, and I thought Silverstram would look a lot more... elegant.That said, I recognize that a lot of effort went into the illustrations, and while I miss the older art style, the new drawings do have their own charm and cuteness. I think the pros outnumber the cons in this book.

I love this series! So far I an on book four on The Prophesies Begin. I love this book. It brings out colors and Firehearts true personality!!

This book kept my daughter engaged from start to finish and she can't wait to get the next book. The illustrations in this book are amazing and we are looking forward to continuing this series.

Overall, I think this is a pretty well done adaptation. The art is very vibrant and fluid. It doesn't hold back on the blood and action scenes described in the books. It's definitely a significant improvement compared to the other graphic novels in the series. However, I feel like the story seemed a bit rushed. There's certain significant scenes omitted from the novels such as the one with Fireheart saving Sandpaw's life at the gorge. It makes more sense to me if they just dedicated one volume to one book instead of adapting Into the Wild and the first half of Fire and Ice into one volume

The Prophecies Begin is, of course, the best arc in the whole series 🩷 This graphic novel covers the first two books "Into the Wild" and "Fire and Ice"Art is cute and book arrived in great condition

I loved how they told the story and every thing but on thing I’m confused about is why is Rusty’s warrior name fire paw in the chapter books his name is fire star but. Overall pretty cool story artwork is really nice and cool there is a lot of cool pictures in the book. And it came pretty quickly I ordered it 2 days ago and it came even though it was supposed to arrive on Tuesday but that was pretty nice that it came quick. Can’t wait till I can get the second and third.
