Why is the Arn's plan to foil the Yeerk attempts at Arn infestation to basically turn themselves into fainting goats? How does Visser 3 compare to Power Rangers’ Ivan Ooze?

Dak and Aldrea build an army of monsters, then Hork-Bajir. Quatzhinnikon reveals all in his PowerPoint. Esplin knocks over a tree phone to build a big pool. Is this scene of the Hork-Bajir squashing the Yeerks the most upsetting act of violence described in the series yet? If Aldrea is the Rachel of this book, does that make Dak more of a Tobias or a Cassie? Why does Quatzhinnikon seem so eager to reveal the whole backstory of the Arn despite his initial protests?

Introducing: the Arn! Esplin discovers his love for method acting. Aldrea asks to speak to the Arn's manager. Was Aldrea the first “unlikable” narrator for many young readers— or at least the first narrator who behaved in such unlikable ways? Is Dak really the first Hork-Bajir to make it through the blue mists of the Arn's Zone, or are the Arn just pushing the others into planet's fiery core? How is the interspecies relationship between Tobias and Rachel similar and different to the rel...

Wer're finally talking about Hork-Bajir Chronicles! Aldrea the Andalite meets Dak the Hork-Bajir. Tobias takes the day off. Seerow screws everything up. Sure, this book has valley depths concealed by a strange, blue fog, but is there anything more mysterious in this novel than Aldrea's mother being born without a name? Why has no one told us about cloud artists before now? Is there anything more gross than how the Andalites talk about intelligence? And how did Miranda and Chris just rea...

The kids wade in the ocean, watching the world end. Then they go home to watch TV. Does KA Applegate know where this series is going or is she making it up as she goes? Why do Ax and Tobias both always seem to possess mysterious knowledge to which the other Animorphs (and the readers) don't have access? Ax always about the broader universe, while Tobias seems to gained a cynical, almost adult wisdom through becoming a Nothlit. How bad does Chris want to see two T-Rexes make out? And ser...

The Animorphs encounter the Mercora, a lovable, crablike people attempting to build a home on Earth, and immediately become conscripted into someone else's war. What does the introduction of the Mercora tell us about the series' stance on nonviolence? Is Cassie doomed to be hardened to violence and harming others over the course of this series? Is Tobias inevitably going to become an Alloran type, willing to sacrifice the well-being of the few for the needs of the many? Are the Mercora...
