Customer Reviews

Complicated, but Excellent

This book is narrated by Rachel, so you know it's gonna be good. The book is kind of complicated, and it introduces the Ellimist, who appears in later books as well. This is one of the begining books, before the series started to go downhill. I would definately recommend this to anyone who isn't too far in the series, but stilll loves the Animorphs.

APPLEGATE'S BEST YET

Wow this is a great book that is not boring like some Sc-Fi books. It is full of action and it is the first one that has the Elimist in it. I liked the part when They had to destroy the fake sun that the yeerks use to stay alive and it was cool when the Elimist took them into the future and told them what could of happened. In this book Rachel has to make a big decision. Should she move with her dad and leave the battle of the Yeerk or would she abanden her dad and stay and fight the yeerks. If you will read this book you will see Rachel's point of view with the Elimist story and you will see if she stays or moves away with her dad. Find this all out in Animorphs #7 The Stranger.

Leave the Fight?

This is one of the best animorphs series book. I loved it because it introduces one of my favorite characters: the Ellimist. Rachel is stressed. Atop of having to fighting the evil mind-controlling yeerks by turning into animals, her father is going to move away and wants her to come with him. A chance for a normal life. But she can't leave now. Her friends have found an entrance to a yeerk pool where the slugs rest each three days. They go inside as roaches and are almost swallowed by a taxxon (a controlled spacial worm) when time stops. A strange man tells them that he can take them to another planet along with some loved ones where the human race can reproduce. Some have made their decision. Will the fight be abandoned?

This book was great!

Out of all the Animorphs books that I read,(1-7), this one is the best. The Animorphs, (Jake, Marco, Cassie, Tobias and Rachel) find a new intrance to the yeerk pool (yeerks are grey slimy slugs who go inside peoples brains and make slaves of them)they use their roach morph to get in but almost get eaten by a Taxxon. Then time stops. An Ellimist gives them the choise to go to go to another planet. I won't tell what happens so you can read the book yourself. I really recomend you read this book weather you like science-fiction or not.

READ THIS BOOK!!!!!

This is possibly the best Animorphs book I have ever read.I cannot believe that they finally destroyed the Kandrona!And the Ellimist offering to take them to a planet free from Yeerks!Brilliant!Not to mention Rachel pushing a Hork-Bajir of the EGS tower.And a Grizzly Bear morph!Nearly being swallowed by a Taxxon!If you have not read this book THEN GOD DAMN IT READ THIS BOOK!
