A short comment for every book of the series until I get a chance to re-read them. All three of my sons and I loved this series and read every single book - I even bought every single book (most, but not all, used; some through school book sales). I'm excited to re-read them to see how the five

more like an Andy Remic book than a Young Adult novel in the Animorphs series. My one complaint is that I would have liked the involvement of the building that proves important to be made part of the plot before it is just randomly supplied by Tobias when asked (Applegate normally does a great job of introducing such elements early in the story to make their eventual utility to the gang more understandable and sensible to the reader).Were the whole series written in this style by this author (Elise Smith, ghostwriter), we would lose significant character development of Applegate, but would gain in some of the action-packed plots she is capable of giving us.
