More Warriors News...

[Bane]

Got this in my email from the AuthorTracker yesterday:

Hi Everyone!

Huge, huge thank yous and extra-special purrs to everyone who helped send Dark River straight to the top of the bestseller lists! ☺ ☺ ☺ (Three very happy Erins!) This is the third time Warriors has hit the #1 spot, and it still feels as wonderful, humbling and astonishing as it did the first time. Because we all live in the UK, the hoo-haa of being top of the charts in the US feels quite distant and rather unreal, but we always send each other crazy squealing e-mails saying things like "We rock!" and “Go, us!” Then of course it’s back to work…

Right now, Kate's putting the final touches to Warriors: Power of Three #4: Eclipse, and Cherith is in the home stretch with Seekers #2: Great Bear Lake. Vicky's just finished the storyline for Warriors: Power of Three #5, which will be called Long Shadows (you heard it here first!), and is in the middle of drawing maps for the Seekers endpapers. You know how much Vicky loves drawing… ☹ Vast quantities of chocolate are being consumed!

More breaking news for AuthorTracker readers: There's going to be a third manga trilogy, starring…Ravenpaw! We miss him as much as you do, so we're going to turn the clock back to when the four Clans were still living in the forest and give you a glimpse of what Ravenpaw's life was like when he first moved to the barn to live with Barley. Ravenpaw is Vicky's favorite character—and the one most like her—so she can't wait to write about what he is up to. He'll be heroic in his own way, not like the Clan warriors we're used to and, given his experience with Tigerstar, he'll favor the underdog (or cat). Watch this space for more hints about the new manga adventures!

We know you visit warriorcats.com regularly, because it's the best place to be when you're online—and because the site had more than three million page views in December alone, which is beyond awesome! But this month there's yet another reason to visit: the first official Warriors video! Oh yes—not content with offering you personality tests, quizzes, background info on all the books, and a chance to post a picture of your kittypets, the amazing folks responsible for our website have produced a breathtakingly fabulous video to get you in the mood for reading your favorite series. If you like a challenge, see if you can name the cats that appear, and their Clans. No prizes, but you'll feel very cool if you recognize them all!

Also coming up soon: details of Vicky's April tour. She'd love to meet you and hear what you think of the latest books, so please come along to an event if you can!

With love and best wishes,
Erin

That's amazing! Jesus I gotta get on this AuthorTrackers email list!
What is 'Seekers' though?

And the link to the video isn't working D:

[Bane]

bah, that'll be the proxy.

Seekers is like their second project, all about bears. Can't tell if it's gonna be good or not.

BAH. sorry about the video guys. But because I've got to access this page through a proxy (my DNS server is messing up) it won't let me do links. If another admin could edit the post and get it working, I'd appreciate it. =]

[Bristle + War]

Aah. Should work now I think :D
edit - Ehh...I'm not so crazy about how they did the video. I was hoping for..I dunno, better animation, or even real feral cat clips. -shrugs-

[Bane]

Would have been good if it had been proper animation and not used the old clips.

One day, I vow to create a warrior's animated short that is decent quality animation, and not done on Flash. (my first attempt on Flash was AWFUL)

...one day >.>;

[yellowfang0039]

That was so cool! Whoa. I luff WARRIORS! And seekers is a new series by Erin Hunter, something about bears. I will never read it, the legacy of Warriors MUST live on!

[Kest]

Speaking of Warriors...has anyone read The Rise of Scourge yet?
I've only seen a few pages online, but it looks pretty good. The art is waaaay better than The Lost Warrior's.

clicky!

[Bane]

<333 Scourge.

I haven't got it, but I know the story and think it's alright. The art is goood. Also, from what I've heard of WW there's a secret in the book that people'll notice if they pay attention and find the clues.

[Gryfin and Co.]

ugh, I looooove Scourge.

Lol, I love him so much that I read the entire graphic novel in the bookstore. XD
It actually is really good... you get to see Tigerstar as a apprentice! =O For a brief moment anyway. But yeah, the art is great and the story has a great progression, though I wish it was a little longer.... D= I <3 me some Scouuuurrrggeee. xP

[Treblevoice]

I just bought the Rise of Scourge, and I thought it was just awesome, showing how Scourge was raised, and how he went through life. I feel sorry for him, but at the same time, amazed how he survived.
