Seekers. Sternengeister: Band 6 (2010) - Plot & Excerpts
I haven't read this series since I was a lot younger. Back in the days where I enjoyed reading about talking animals going on adventures and acting like humans. Granted, Erin Hunter does a better job portraying it than most but still. For some bizarre reason, I got the sudden urge to read the next book in the Seekers Series, even though I hadn't touched them in years. Maybe I'm just a nostalgic person, but I decided to continue the series and see where the heck talking bears can go. Well, I read it. And I'm not quite sure what to think of it. I'll give it some leeway since I assume it was meant for a younger audience, but I wasn't a big fan of the writing style. It was pretty simplistic. The plot was okay, it mostly felt like a bunch of bears wandering around the arctic and discovering the consequences of global warming. The characters were okay, but not as charming as I remembered. I liked Kallik and Lusa, but quite frankly Toklo struck me as rather arrogant and obnoxious. In any case, it's a good book for a younger audience but unless you have a strong passion for talking bears, I wouldn't recommend it. Spoiler AlertAlthough I read this series when I was a lot younger, I re-read it and Awwwwww, such a cute series. The Ice is such a harsh and unforgiving place where we say goodbye to all our bear friends in this last book of the series and goodbye to one certain bear for good :(I had the silent wish that he would return and was quite upset when he didn't. If only I could convince myself that the dead won't return no matter how many times you read the series.Toklo was such a strong character but him having to lose both Tobi and Ujurak? It was all too much for me. Toklo really was a sweet character once you got past his first impression appearance of a grumpy leader.I hope that Kissimi grows up to remember Kallik, Lusa, Toklo and Ujurak and that they might meet sometime in the future.I also hope that Lusa doesn't lose Kallik along they way as Yakone joins the group and that Kallik is reunited with Taqqiq.'While Yakone turned back to say goodbye to the other white bears, Kallik gazed up at the sky. She knew that somewhere beyond the blue Ujurak was watching them. His sent whisked around her, and she heard him whisper."I will be with you every step of the way home.""Thank you," Kallik whispered back.Just because I'm interested, leave a comment on what you wished for after the series ended :D
What do You think about Seekers. Sternengeister: Band 6 (2010)?
Well the reason I gave this book 4 stars instead of 5 is simply because I REALLY REAALY Liked it but it wasnt AMAAAZZZZZZZIIIING (the end was amazing though) Read no further if you didn't finish the first 3 books. After the bears reached The Last Great Wilderness I wasn't sure if the author planned about what will happen next (which is the next THREE books)because the 4th book was a total crap in my opinion, or it wasn't good enough. Well after two books the three bears were following Ujurak to the UNKNOWN (that was kind of boring). But in this book, the 4 bears finally reached to the final stage of their journey, and I wasn't sure what was going on in this book. Like half of it had the prophecy of the black bear with the seal issue (which was a page wasting for a final book, even Toklo said so). But still... The end was very touching and breath taking and also magical. Too bad that I can't consider it an ending because it's not even an end it's just the end of their task but not their story, and I hate Erin Hunter for that. I really don't know what I will do with the second series, but if Egmont decided to released it (I doubt that) then I will get them, if they didn't i guess I will get the sucky Harper Edition.

I thought that the book was great. My favorite part was when the bears saved the wild. They were clever to use the caribou stampede that could kill them to destroy the horrible human structure. They know that they went on this journey for a reason and then all of a sudden, their guide, Ujurak died saving them. All of them were sad but they got a knew companion, Yakone, the polar bear. It all settled in their hearts that they saved the wild and more like saved the whole world.

A great way to end the first series
