I like those books. I like Ax, he's cool. I like Tobias too but
probably just because hes unusual. I like strange things and being a human in a hawks body is definately strange. |

Ax was my favorite. My favorite scene with him has to be the time Marco telling the story abou how he was going through the mall and found a crowd around the cinnamon bun place. He decides to bug a pretty girl an SHE tells him that SOMEONE was crazy enough to try to eat and entire pan of buns. Ax did not yet know that peoples stomachs have a finite limit.

I'm pretty much off of my Animorphs kick, but I like all of the characters, especially Rachel.
"Let's do it!"- I luv that line! Can anyone tell me how many of the series there is now? And have the Animorphs won, or the Yeerks? 'Cus I don't read these much anymore. But I luv #'s 26, 25, 6, 1, 2, 15, 16, 10, & 11. Guess I'm not really over the Animorphs quite yet. Later.....

About which side won, well, see, that's a question none of us can answer. The last book in the series ended with a blasted cliffhanger!! And it being the last in the series, we will never find out who won. It really bites, but I'm sure K.A. had a good reason.
Oh, and I'm sure that the series has a little over 60 books now right? Correct me if I'm wrong.

I was really into Animorphs for a while. But I swear, I knew that Elfangor was related to Tobias. Probably because I was into Star Wars before that... ("Luke...I AM your father....")
My favorite characters have to be Tobias and Ax. Gotta love the alien!

I found the series bad, but they were making her get one out every month, so who can blame her? I liked the things she did on her own time.

That is true. It did seem as though they were coming out rather quickly. Now that I've read them over, I find her writing to be a bit simple.

Yeah, I get what you're saying. I stopped reading them because I just lost intrest in the way she wrote. I still loved the idea, but her writing just couldn't quite hold my interest. And they were coming out way to fast for me to keep up.

The font was a little big too, I had to back up and read it. I'm used to smaller print nowadays.

Yes, me, too. I'm used to smaller print these days.
I've read a few Animorphs books. They're not my favourite, but they're OK. I've never bothered to pick up from where I left off, but nowadays I don't think I'd be interested in them anymore.

Ok, I'll admit it. I went through a HUGE phase around 3rd/4th grade where I LOVED these books. Blame Laurelyn, she got me started. Never read 'em in order. I've definitely outgrown them by now.
