Twilight is a children's fantasy novel in the Warriors novel series written by multiple authors under the pseudonym of Erin Hunter. It is the fifth book in the New Prophecy series. It was generally well-received by critics.
Squirrelflight struggles to understand why Brambleclaw still supports Hawkfrost even though he helped Mudclaw try to take over WindClan. Slowly, the relationship Brambleclaw built with Squirrelflight during the Great Journey is lost. At the same time, she and Ashfur grow much closer.
Later in the book, Daisy, one of the farm cats, take her three kits Berry, Hazel, and Mouse to join ThunderClan after Daisy witnessing the Twolegs taking Floss' kits away.
Leafpool deals with her forbidden love with Crowfeather, and struggles with her feelings, and she must choose between her heart and her Clan. Throughout the book, Leafpool and Crowfeather secretly meet each other. Cinderpelt finally confronts Leafpool when she is with Crowfeather. The two medicine cats fight, and Leafpool decides to run away from the Clans with Crowfeather after Spottedleaf tells her to follow her heart. After a long night alone in the hills, Leafpool and Crowfeather return to the Clans after hearing of a badger attack on the Clans from Midnight.
During the fight, Sorreltail suddenly starts to have her kits and Cinderpelt stays to help Sorreltail. Although Sorreltail gives birth to four healthy kits, Cinderpelt dies when a badger kills her. ThunderClan begins to lose the battle when WindClan joins in to help, summoned by Midnight (the badger from the sundrown place). Together, the two Clans manage to drive the badgers away. Crowfeather and Leafpool decide to never meet again. At the very end, Stormfur and Brook come to visit ThunderClan, although they don't say why.
Twilight has received a warm reception from critics. In one review by Barnes and Noble, the novel was praised for being eventful.[2] A BookLoons reviewer also gave a positive review[3], but a Children's Literature reviewer said the story was confusing without background information.[2]
