Normally I'm not a fan of the Megamorph books. However, this has to be the exception. It is probably the best Animorphs book so far. It really builds on the increasing darkness of the series and the characters and while not important to the main story has huge consequences for the morality and mentality of the characters going forwards. Also their was no incest or beastiality so take what u can get.

I liked the premise of this much more than the execution. The beginning was very strong but once they started on their quest I wasn’t as intrigued.

I should have loved this one as I'm a fan of time travel books, but I found this instalment messy and chaotic. I would have thought it was a ghost written book if I wasn't told otherwise.
Definitely the most violent of the books so far. I think Applegate forgot she was writing a kids book

The Solace: Wow! This book was wild! I'm obsessed with the premise - time traveling to key human history battles and moments like the Battle of Agincourt, Washington crossing the Deleware, and D-Day - absolutely wild, reliving these moments in history as one of our Animorphs. I mean, picture being a bird at the beginning of Saving Private Ryan - wtf! It was so crazy and so intense to read through. I also loved the moral dilemma that Applegate poses for her audience again: if timelines are changed, if people are different in their timelines, how can we judge humanity? "Good guys or bad? Had we turned the battle for better or worse?"
The Dread: Applegate is crying wolf with some of these consequences. Based on previous books, I know not to take every consequence or sad action to be 'real' or 'stay that way' in this universe since she's reversed them a bit in other books. And by the time we get to this one and take on a heavy consequence, I don't believe or feel it as much.
Overall, this book was a wild adventure and heavy on my heart to think and read through the heartache and destruction that humans cause each other throughout time. "...the killer with a conscience... Kill 'em and then cry over them." This series deserves all the love. But for those that read this as a kid, are you all ok?
