(Spoiler-free review)In my life, there have only ever been two book series where I spent my time impatiently awaiting the release of the next installation. This was one of them. I grew up being absolutely obsessed with this series. I was there right from the beginning along with several of my friends. Whenever a new book came out, we were there that day to buy it and we usually devoured it in one or two sittings and then spend the next month talking about it, all the way up until the release of
ReRead in 2017. Was surprised and impressed how well the books held up. After starting I quickly realized there was much more to the story than a few kids turning into animals. The story delves into complex moral issues and lets the reader decide the 'right' thing was. Loss of innocence, life and death, free will, war, depression, family, loyalty. I enjoyed different books this read through than I had when I read through the series more than ten years ago. Couldn't recommend the series highly
The entire series is something I think youth can enjoy. It's very accessible, and you get drawn in through the variety of characters. You're on this journey with them, and throughout the series you watch them go from overwhelmed young teenagers to warriors, with real and deep problems. Tensions increase and relationships strain as the kids wage war against impossible odds. Of course, I was sad for the way the series ended, but realistically, war is about death.
I read every book in this series, including all the Megamorphs, Andalite Chronicles, Hork Bajur Chronicles, etc. I love this series! A way better alternative to the Goosebumps, in my opinion.
Because it's too much effort to add every single book from the series.
Rather than rate each Animorphs book individually, I just gave the entire series 5 stars. First of all, these books aren't directly targeted for a mature adult; they are mostly written for kids. Actually, they are perfect for preteens, these books got me into reading in the first place. Not saying an adult can't enjoy them, I started reading them when I was about 9 or 10 and finally read the last one when I was 22, because they most certainly can. The books start off where every good preteen
