    I'm getting back into the series. I read the first 5 arcs of the main series years ago(I enjoyed the dawn of the clans a lot). I read half of the super editions. I found out how crazy the future books got so I got interested again. Thank you so much for the video because oof I thought trying to figure out the order of the past books were hard but this is something else haha. I'm currently reading the older novellas. I'm also listening to the audio book of Moth Flight's Vision, it's so good.

      Honestly, I would still recommend the Prophecies Begin first. Understanding the weird names/terms/practices is a lot easier when you start with an outsider’s perspective (Rusty) than with Tribe cats or, even worse, intricate RiverClan drama. Hearing a few plot points from your friends /= understanding all the world building. Start with TPB, then do whatever you want.

    I have a tendency to read books in strict chronological order. For example, I would read Hollyleaf's Story while reading The Fourth Apprentice, going back and forth between books, trying to sync what Hollyleaf was doing at the same time as what her Clan was doing. Like when she put the marigolds up in the tree. I'd read that part of Hollyleaf's Story, then read the part in the other book where they found the marigolds in the tree, then back to Hollyleaf's Story. I know, I'm weird. 😁

    I read them in chronological order. My bookshelf is in that order. My books start at dawn of the clans, 4 prequel SE and then the main story of Warriors (with the SE’s in there wherever they fit) the only problem I have is I don’t know where in the timeline tigerheart’s shadow happens.
    I currently don’t own any novellas so when I do get one I wouldn’t know where to put them (also don’t own any manga)
    I don’t have every main series book so when I re-read the books sometimes there are gaps in the storyline, like about 3 weeks ago when I finished reading a dangerous path and then moved to Midnight (don’t have darkest hour or Firestar’s quest) but I’m poor so that’s fine.

      One time, to prepare for the french release of the last hope(was bad in english), I read the fourth apprentice and half of Fading Echoes two days before the release date, then all the rest the day afterward. I was still awake at 1am lol.

    Twolegs aren't gonna read them all fur these reasons
    1.They are expensive to buy all of them together.
    2.Libaries would never have them.
    3.If your young, good luck getting permission to buy at least one book 😂.
    4.It'll take moons to read all of them.
    5. You'll be old befure you get to the current if your "new", you need luck 😂😂.

      Libraries do have them. You just need to put a hold, and they will get the books from other libraries to you. It how libraries work in the US. But due to covid, need to do everything online. Book stores are rare around here and soft cover books are cheaper than hard cover. Not to mention those secret scenes that they put in some books that is impossible to read. Like why needletail is the way she is. Those are hard to get. But everything else should be easy unless you live in a place with no libraries or few libraries

    I have a confession: I've never actually read the Prophecies Begin. I started with New Prophecy and ended up just never reading arc 1 all the way. I've read the first three out of order and broken up by years, but I've never felt the need to go back and read them.

    • @TheAshfurApologist
      @TheAshfurApologist 3 года назад +14

      Well the darkest hour of arc 1 is arguably the best overall book in the entire series outside of scourges Manga. You might have missed out not reading that one.

    • @lorraine3888
      @lorraine3888 3 года назад +18

      The first arc is definitely the best in my opinion. It could be nostalgia, but I really think it is also the best written arc! The characters are epic, there is much less filler and the atmosphere is everything. If you have the time to read it, please consider it, I promise it's worth it!

    • @LibraryofAcousticMagic3240
      @LibraryofAcousticMagic3240 3 года назад +7

      I started with Midnight, so I kind of feel you. But I must say, it felt really cool to read the new prophecy and then the prophecy begins, because there were so many hints to the first arc but not so many that everything was spoiled. Would kind of recommend :)

    • @montinadraws1721
      @montinadraws1721 3 года назад +7

      Honestly, if you ever have the time, I would really recommend reading the prophesies begin. For me, it’s one of the most fulfilling arcs. It’s not full of complex villains or storylines but they are a good set of well written books.

    • @Random_110
