Who Is Erin Hunter? Erin Hunter is a prolific writer and storyteller who cranks out volumes of books about animals.  Erin incorporates her love of nature into these fantasy novels by spinning mythical explanations regarding animals and their behavior. Her Seekers series explores bears; her Survivors series spotlights dogs; Warriors is for cat lovers; and her Bravelands saga is a little wilder with stories about animals in the African savannah. How can she devise so many engaging plots without the creative well ever running dry?  It helps that Erin Hunter isn't one person, but an identity for a collective team of seven writers who take turns authoring the stories.  I'm not kitten -you!
