Book Reviews of Animorphs #38: The Arrival
Book Review: Entertaining and Thoughtful
Summary: 5 Stars
In "The Arrival," an Andalite ship with four Andlaites arrives on Earth, apparently on an assassination mission. Instead of professional warriors, however, the Andalites are a bunch of misfits with secrets of their own: a blustering coward, a pragmatic criminal, a desperate professor, and a naïve prodigy. Jake further demonstrates his abilities as a strategist and leader throughout the book, combining firm resolve with talented deception. Ax, meanwhile, gets his first kiss and realizes where his true loyalties lie.
This Ax book continues the ideas of his other books: that Andalites are not perfect. Andalite society is just as riddled with intrigue, double-dealing, traitors, and government hypocrisy as human society. The book reinforces the ideas that it is impossible to label an entire species (or race) as uniformly this or that. I definitely liked this book, though found the trip to the Yeerk pool unnecessary and contrived as well as the break in at the Community Center too easy and simple.
