Title: Would you have liked to see any of the auxiliary Animorphs narrate a book?
Post by: Yorick Brown on July 15, 2008, 01:22:31 PM
They weren't with us for long, but James was an interesting character I'd like to have gotten some perespective on. Collette and maybe Kelly too.

James maybe. I don't think anyone else had any sort of development, but James wound up being the unofficial Auxilary leader.

But then most of them, if not all, wound up dead in the end. I really believe there could have been better things done with them.

I think on Truth's website, Hirlac Delest (spelling?) they have a link for this girl who rewrote the last two books and alot of it is from Jame's point of view. I read some of it and I thought it was pretty well-written if you want to check it out.

Yeah I wish more was done with them too.

yeah. I read those, or at least read the last book. I thought it was a bit too long.

I'd also like a book written by one of those characters... May be somebody will do a fanfiction... ;)

I thought killing them off was rather lazy. There was so much potential development with them and I don't believe that it couldn't have been worked into the last four books.

Yeah, they were really under used.  Them all dying was possible, but I didn't like the way that we never heard anything about them afterwards.  It's just like they sort of disappeared.  Oh, and I would've loved to see something narrated by James, even for only a few chapters.

Sure. If you could link it to this thread, I'll read it.

As much as we all love KA, I think it's obvious she sorta wrote herself into a corner when the countdown started ::)

I disagree. Don't you see? She made it a mystery. If everything was all patched up, then we would have less to talk in this forum and Animorphs might have died earlier. The magic. So beautiful.  :'(

I would've been interested in Collette's POV. Someone who starts off as a liar but is also a good person.

James' book would've been similar to Jake's; the two remind me of each other, not to mention their names are close too.

I agree with Tiana. Collette was so cool!! I'd like to hear more about her...

Who was Collette? I only really remember James.

I wish the aux. Animorphs had been better developed.  They were really interesting and also I think pretty controversial...yea h let's throw handicapped kids into battle where they all die.  But they also got the chance to express themselves more than ever before...my sister has special needs, many of her friends do too, so this is something personally interesting to me (to her, too), what if the difficulties brought on by different handicaps or disorders were healed or removed?  Anyway, I thought that was cool.  At least a chapter or two by James would've been nice, but maybe not enough time to further develop him properly?

Collette was one of the first kids that the Animorphs met. She lied about getting injured in some extreme sports accident and only being there temporarily, but actually she was born a quadriplegic. Her dominant morph was a crocodile. (and I think there was flirting with Marco ;) )

Yeah part of me always wanted to see Marco end up with someone, and when she was introduced I was just like "Oh here we go, finally!"
