also, yeah, i'm not a fan of marco's characterization in this book ! infiltrating the party with his morph powers feels out of character for him, since in the books before he was the one being careful with morphing, sometimes being the one less motivated to morph. i mean, until MM1, if i remember well, the only time marco ever morph outside of missions is in #5, at the start, because he sees an old man being attacked and he wants to help. the start of the book kinda needs him to be more immature than usual for it to work
but that doesn't mean that everything is bad in this book. i like the plot with the veleek, i like that we get to see a bit of yeerks's internal tension (with chapman talking with his peers)... and of course marco hating trash cans was really funny to read. but to me it's about balance between what's good and bad, and the two points i mentioned earlier are just too much for me to appreciate the whole
but since i haven't read every book yet, my opinion might change
which book do you like the most on your part ?
