okay I just had another thought but I'm not prepared to write a huge long screed about it, so I'll just ask:
is anyone else kind of bothered that the only perspective we get to view the taxxons and hork-bajir through is "Andalite"? I mean Dak kind of throws a wrench into this, but he was a *special* Hork-Bajir who spoke and thought like an intelligent race, not like the Hork-Bajir.
I guess I'm wondering what a book narrated by an ACTUAL Taxxon (not just Arbron) or an AVERAGE Hork-Bajir would sound like. We got that from the Yeerks, and honestly those precious few chapters of Yeerk perspective we get are really good. Why not Taxxons or Hork-Bajir? Are they just like second-tier aliens or something
