Damn this book was so much more affecting than I expected it to be. The backstories of the Howlers and the Iskhort were both so affecting and really makes you think of them so differently. I loved how the Iskhorts were so creepy and the Animorphs didn’t want to help them but did anyway. 

I also love how Jake and Cassie have their first kiss in this book. It was really sweet and a much needed moment after such a dark period for Jake in this book. This is truly Animorphs at its best.
