While I was reading Redtail's Debt, Tigerclaw's communication with little Redpaw was reminiscent of how Scar encouraged naive Simba to do stupid things, which art took as a basis.
I saw that Redpaw was not very well liked after this book, but as for me, it shows the normal development of a positive child who trusted everyone in his family, wanted to be good and right in their eyes, but in the end was used for selfish purposes. In the end, he still grew up and stood firmly on his paws, and disowned Tigerclaw's stupid manipulations.
The only thing that confuses is the ending, it clearly leaves much to be desired, in addition to hedkanon, this difficult and long-shrouded mystery moment is simply not interesting enough.
I can describe his whole life with the phrase "what if I'm wrong"?
