📚 Animorphs Deep Dive: Books 4–6 | The Message, The Predator, The Capture
The saga continues! This week, we’re diving into the next trio of Animorphs books by K.A. Applegate: The Message, The Predator, and The Capture. The stakes are rising, the fights are weirder (did someone say swimming slugs?), and the moral dilemmas are just getting started.
From dolphins to bug fighters to the horrors of being trapped in morph, we’re talking about the sci-fi series that shaped a generation and why it still holds up (and sometimes terrifies us) today.
👁️ Identity, war, loss, and alien slugs, let’s morph!
