Let me just say that I was up until 3 in the morning last night reading this and I don't at all regret it!!! This was a very cool Animorph book. The ending came fast, I wish there had been more but it wwas still awsome!!! K.A. rocks! To the person who wrote the review that said Animorphs were losing their touch: NO WAY!!! Animorphs are still the coolest book around so give them some credit. The past two Animorphs have been some of the best so far, K.A. and Animorphs are awsome!!!

K.A. Applegate is on a role lately! With Animorphs being a best-seller and Ever World gaining fame, she's set!

This was a pretty good book. First off, before you read this, read the Hork Bajr chronicles. In this book Aldrea returns. At least her mind does. The last remaining Arn comes to Earth, saying he has Aldreas mind. Before ahe died, Aldrea good her profona, or something like that, tooken. Everything she new, thought, felt went into storage. Now she is brought back into Cassies mind and body. They share one body and quest to find hidden Yeerk Weapons. After searching everywhere on the hork bajr homeworld, they finally find them. When they get back to Earth, Aldrea doesn't want to leave. Ax threatens to kill Toby, her grandaughter and seer, and leaves. Confusing? Read the Book. You'll be glad you did.

I guess this book was good, but I found it really hard to understand as I hadn't read thev Hork bajir chronclies first. All the book was about stuff which happened in that. it seemed to end too soon,there should have been a bit about cassie at the end. but still a good animorph book, though you should read the hork bajir chronicles first.

In this Cassie book, the only surviving Arn comes to Earth with a request: to harvest DNA for the creation of new, free Hork-Bajir who will retake their planet from the Yeerks. None of the Hork-Bajir mind donating DNA, but there's another catch-the Arn needs a receptacle for the Ixicla (essence, spirit) of Aldrea (the daughter of Seerow) who led the resistance on the Hork-Bajir home world years ago (read the Hork-Bajir Chronicles for the full story that is quite sad, yet insightful) and stockpiled a ship and weapons.

So Cassie becomes the receptacle and the Animorphs, Toby Hamee, and the Arn go to the Hork-Bajir home world to find the stolen ship and start the resistance. The reader gets narration from both Cassie and the long-dead spirit of Aldrea residing in her brain, which is quite good. I liked this book for its change of scenery and for some decent Cassie that's not too preoccupied about moralizing.

The whole book starts when Cassie finds Jara Hamee walking around, looking for the Animorphs. THey go to the Hork-Bajir valley and find that and Arn (see Hork-Bajir Chronicles) is looking for a vessel to put the essence of Aldrea, daughter of Seerow in. The Arn's plan was to go to the Hork-BAJIR world to find the weapons Dak Hamee and Aldrea hid there. Then he would create a new race of Hork-Bajir to fight the Yeerks.

It was pretty good but it had some holes. This is one of the Animorph books that I think is kind of dumb. I read it because it had Aldrea, from the Hork-Bajir Chronicles, my favorite of all theextra Animorph books.

The ending was kind of fuzzy but I like the way KA did it.

First off, read the Hork-Bajir chronicles first. In this book, the last remaning Arn, the race that created the Hork-Bajir (see, i told you to read the HB chronicles first) lands in the Hork-Bajir colony in a captured Yeerk Bug fighter. He asks for the free Hork-Bajir's DNA so he can start a rebel army against the Yeerks on the Hork-Bajir home world. But Aldrea, daughter of Prince Seerow that delibritly trapped herself in Hork-Bajir morph and married Dak Hamee, a seer. She stole a Yeerk ship loaded with Dracon Beams and hid it, but the only way to recover the weapons is to ask her, and she's dead. The Arn has he persona stored, and she choses Cassie to reside temparily in. They fly to the HB home world. What happens next? Read the book to find out!

This book is chock-full of action and never stops to rest. K. A. Applegate has written many Animorph titles and this one seems to be above as some others are as well. It's a must read- it's from Cassie's point of view and is going into the free- Hork- Bajir issue and of course, a prophecy.

i have and read all these animorphs books. ( thought i am looking forward to reading the everworld too when i have time. i say this is pretty good. but when will fighting the yeerks end? and how? excuse my saying-so ( but as everyone is entitled to their own opinion) i think these books are losing their touch. but even so after a lot of people stop reading this series, i will keep buying the new ones to read, just to find out how it all ends.

This book is one of my favorites!!! I admit, it did end a little fast, but it was great!! I understood it immediatly cause I'm zoned with Animorphs! But of course, Read the HorkBajir Chronicles first to let this book make a little more sense. One word to describe this book: Fantastic!!!!!
