Hi everyone,
It's November, and that can mean only ONE THING. It's ELECTION RESULTS TIME!!! It's time for the ULTIMATE WARRIORS CLAN LEADER TO BE REVEALED! And the winner is…
FIRESTAR!
The kittypet-turned-warrior triumphed over Crookedstar at the last minute, making him your Number One Choice to lead all four Clans—should all four Clans ever need a single leader, of course… To find out what might happen if Firestar really did become Ultimate Clan leader, watch out for a unique short story coming to www.warriorcats.com in January 2009. This is your chance to find out if you made the right decision by voting for ThunderClan's most controversial warrior.
It was a much closer race than I expected, to be honest. Because we've seen so much from Firestar's point of view, and he really is rather heroic, I thought he’d walk off with nearly everybody’s vote. But Bluestar and Tigerstar were early leaders in the election, and then Crookedstar enjoyed a surge in popularity that sent him through to the very last stage of voting. It's been great to see how much support there is for other leaders in the history of the Clans. They all have virtues and strengths of their own; after all, they need StarClan's blessing to receive their nine lives, so ambition alone isn't enough to secure their place at the top.
Huge Thank You Purrs to everyone who got involved with this year's Warriors Election. We hope you enjoyed the online stickers and greetings cards to help promote your choice of Ultimate Leader, as well as the chance to make your voice heard. Every single vote is worth making, whatever you're voting for. And special congratulations, of course, go to Firestar's supporters, for being enthusiastic (and numerous!) enough to put him on top of all these great Clan leaders.
The other Very Exciting Event this month takes place on November 25th. Oh yes, it's time for Warriors Power of Three Book Five: Long Shadows to appear! I think I can safely say that no other Warriors title has been anticipated quite so eagerly. You know that question everyone’s been asking about the parentage of a certain trio of ThunderClan cats? And the shocking rumours about who might really be their mother? After months of being tight-lipped (and loving the suspense!), I'm finally going to let you in on a secret or two – revealing something that will change the lives of every cat in the Clans, one way or another. How can you wait?! Just make sure you mob your local bookstore on November 25th to get your copy!
With love and best wishes,
