Product Description
When kittypet Tiny crosses paths with some wild forest cats defending their territory, he is left with scars—and a bitter, deep-seated grudge. As his reputation grows among the strays and loners that live in the dirty brick alleyways of Twolegplace, he changes his name to Scourge and puts everything about his old life behind him—except his deadly desire for revenge.

 "Manga" Again July 26, 2008
Just like Graystripe's Triology, this "manga" book has a few problems. It is way too short and easy to read, and there is just so much more that should be in it yet this "manga" book would be too long. (My best friend, a manga expert, told me that this really isn't manga. It is read front to back and has more pictures than anything- friendly pictures with not much violence! It's more like a graphic novel, according to my father). I did, however, like to finally get a book made from the villian's point of view! It was really neat to find out mroe about the small deadly cat from Twoleggedplace and why he hates Clan cats so much. I like the new style of drawing, and how it gave a few pictures of the famous Thistleclaw and Tigerpaw! ALSO- Read it carefully, and you will discover the BIGGEST Clan secret EVER! And of course I'm not going to blurt it!
Buy this, it's worth your money, I'm pretty sure! (and now that you know of the secret you'll go crazy trying to get it!)

Cat lover! July 22, 2008
Love this series! Also check out THE NINE LIVES OF ROMEO CRUMB if you like action filled books about cats.
 Short but good July 14, 2008
This was short, like all Warriors manga, but I still found it considerably enjoyable. This evil BloodClan leader goes from the cute, fluffy kitten Tiny into the feared Scourge. It provided a good backstory, though there were a few minor annoyances - cats' pupils become large, not slits, when they are frightened, and Tigerpaw/claw/star was drawn weirdly. Out of all the manga, though, I liked Bettina Kurkoski's art the best! They should definitely do another collaboration.
I love books written from the villian's perspective! June 26, 2008

I loved this book, even though it had the usual problems warriors manga has, story length, lack of story detail, etc. I liked it because I had always wondered what made the delightfully vicious little cat the way he was, and now we find out! Unfortunatly there cannot be another book about him because he is killed, but I hope there is a similar book to this. I liked the illistrations, she did a great job capturing the cat's emotions. I thought Tigerstar looked a little weird, and so did the humans, but I loved the way they put Thisleclaw, Bluefur and Tigerpaw in the begining! I'd often wondered what Thisleclaw had been like.
Altogether a great buy!
Amazing Chronology June 25, 2008
2 out of 3 found this review helpful
This is a great chronology of the life of Scourge, or, more accurately, his rise to power. It details how exactly he did it, as well as focusing upon his rough early life. The art is very good, and I enjoyed watching him become the cat that was feared by all. As with all Warriors manga books, it was a little short, but I believe that the art and enjoyable story line well make up for it.
