Animorphs Read 2020 (March);

I really like that this series finally gave Ax his own book. I do find it a little unbelievable there are only like five or six words that are vastly different we get introduced to from the alien point-of-view, and I have issues with "I" point of view managing to hide anything of importance from the reader until it's being revealed to other characters. As that's not how either of those work. But it is a children's book, and it gets a small bit of a write off for that.

I loved the 'kindness' story/history, and I was sure it would be something like that. Where benevolence was answered with crude grasping power. It definitely makes me feel for the whole of their culture, and the prince's both vying with what to do with their world, who to believe, why and what risks they must take now to help and hope to stem the tide of even more worlds falling into slavery.

Fun fluff with moments of seriousness. ( )

Super fun reading about life on Earth from Ax the alien's perspective. ( )

Hmmm…Having watched the entire television show (which I know takes us past this particular volume) I was pleasantly surprised by the events. It was great getting to see more of Ax’s culture and people and learning more about the Andalite’s history and failures. ( )
