Supposedly a young adults science fiction novel... I'm 50 and I enjoyed it! Well written, nice story, not too many leaps-of-faith. I'll be reading the rest of the series as I can get hold of them...

I don't remember specifically, but I do remember loving this entire series and loving the 'alongside' books even more. The characters developed over time, and the issues of good vs evil were complex.

A really good story. It is how the Hork-Bajir were enslaved by the Yeerks. The Hork-Bajir were living peaceful lives before the Yeerks came and changed their lives. Dak is a seer and has to guide his people through a very hard struggle.

Very cool prequel backstory. A must
LibraryThing member Sammelsurium
Unparalleled insight into the Hork-Bajir, Andalites, and Visser 3. Also deeply, deeply tragic.
