**New Series Alert: Shattered Bonds** I'm thrilled to announce the launch of my new Warrior Cats graphic novel, *Shattered Bonds*! This series dives deep into the world of ThunderClan, RiverClan, and beyond, exploring the secrets, loyalties, and mysteries that will shape the future of the Clans. Get ready for a journey filled with suspense, action, and emotional twists as Hazepaw and his fellow apprentices uncover hidden truths and face challenges that will test their very bonds. **Read the Prologue here:** (not out yet!) --- **My Personal Take on the Characters:** - **Hazepaw:** As the main character, Hazepaw is a young apprentice with a lot on his shoulders. I find his journey particularly compelling because he’s not just trying to prove himself as a warrior; he’s also unraveling a past that ties him to a prophecy he never knew existed. His curiosity and determination make him a character I can’t wait to explore further. - **Sandstar:** The wise and strong leader of ThunderClan, Sandstar’s calm demeanor hides the weight of leadership. I admire his ability to guide his Clan through turmoil, but I’m also interested in the challenges he’ll face as secrets begin to surface. - **Pondstripe:** As the deputy of ThunderClan, Pondstripe carries a heavy secret—his RiverClan heritage. I love the complexity this adds to his character, especially since it creates inner conflict as he tries to balance his loyalty to ThunderClan with his hidden past. - **Crescentfall:** A fierce and loyal warrior, Crescentfall’s dedication to his Clan is admirable. I appreciate how he embodies the spirit of a true ThunderClan warrior, but I’m curious to see how he reacts when the bonds of the Clan are tested. - **Heathertail:** A nurturing and wise she-cat, Heathertail is more than just a mother to Pebblepaw—she’s a guiding force within the Clan. Her connection with Owltail and her daughter adds a lot of emotional depth to her character. - **Owltail:** As Pebblepaw’s father and Hazepaw’s mentor, Owltail’s journey is one of balancing pride and protection. I find his struggle to guide Hazepaw while dealing with his own concerns about the prophecy intriguing. - **Coldfrost:** Coldfrost is a seasoned warrior with a complex history. His connection to RiverClan and his role as a mentor to Redpaw make him a character full of contradictions, which I think adds a lot to the story. - **Pebblepaw:** Pebblepaw’s journey as an apprentice is made even more interesting by her relationships with her parents, Heathertail and Owltail. Her determination to prove herself while living up to their expectations is something I find really relatable. - **Redpaw:** As an eager and fiery apprentice, Redpaw’s energy and enthusiasm are refreshing. I’m excited to see how his personality develops as he faces the challenges ahead. I hope you all enjoy reading *Shattered Bonds* as much as I enjoy creating it. Your feedback and thoughts on the characters and story are always welcome!
