I dunno why, but TAC was never my favorite. Actually, none of the Chronicles were. I mean, I liked them a lot. But I guess I was more interested in the main characters, the Animorphs, more than the other stories to be told. But I'm like that with everything.
I haven't read this book since the last re-read, but, I do remember that there was a lot of parts that I thought were boring or uninteresting. Once KA brings in the Time Matrix I always roll my eyes a little. I guess what I really wanted to see and what I never got was MORE ANDALITE CULTURE. You and I have areed about this in the past, but I definitely would have liked to learn way a lot about Andalites and what their deal is.
As much as I enjoyed reading about a young Elangor, I felt like KA glossed over the parts I really wanted to read about, like, when Fangy gets sucked back to the real world by the Ellimist and then all of a sudden he's thrust into the middle of a fight... what was that about? How did that magically happen? KA just kind of glossed over the years of Elfangor's Glory, which I would hae kind of liked to read about a little. We spent sooooo many pages reading Elfangor angst, I think a couple of pages spent on Elfangor's Win wouln't have been so bad...
