Which cats decreed the legendary laws? Which laws failed to become part of the code? All this and more will be revealed in CODE OF THE CLANS!

Detailed Plot Summary

 * Though it has no real plot, Code of the Clans contains a lot of information that is not revealed in the main series books, including explanations of how all the laws of the Warrior Code were created, why they were created, laws that were not accepted as part of the code, examples of cats breaking the warrior code or following it, and short stories from different cats who narrate on what they think of the different codes. Leafpool narrates for some of the time, explaining how the code works and summarizing how each code came to be in short stories. It also features cats talking about a particular subject, for example, Sandstorm confessing her love for Firestar.
