Beautiful book. Unlike Into the Wild, this book relies on the protagonist's emotion and relationships. Like Rusty in the main books, we watch Stormkit grow into Crookedkit, Crookedpaw, Crookedjaw, and finally Crookedstar in the span of 40 (I think) chapters. And it's way more effective than the main books!
The concept of love and loss is repeated throughout the book and contains a valuable lesson on the cost of love. It's one of those books where, in the beginning you're like, “Did that person just state the theme? Is that really the theme? How is THAT the theme?” and then you get to the end and you're crying, “OHHH, THAT was the theme! I didn't see that coming!”
This book made me cry for, like, two hours after I finished it at 3:00am in the morning.
