it could have been more spaced out and have more detail though
if she wanted to do that, why doesn't she just make more than 54 books?

its possible they gave them a specific number of books to finish it up, but maybe ka was just like okay its time on her own
yeah...that's sort of what I was talking about. I know I read somewhere that the contract was set for quite a few more books, but she decided to end at 54. If she wanted to spread the ending out, why didn't she just decide to go over 54 books?

*slaps forehead*

I mean, if she wanted to spread out the ending, she could've kept all the filler books, and just make the series over 54 books. She didn't, so she wanted to rush the ending (or maybe there's another reason).

she didnt want to rush the ending, she just wanted to make it 9 books lol theres nothing wrong with that, thats plenty of an ending imo and apparently in her opinion too

is that the opinion of everyone? clearly not, but i think its safe to assume she didnt walk up to michael one morning and be like hey hun, you know what i think we should do? lets just blow an animorphs ending out of our ass, just really screw over all our fans, sounds like fun dear, but do you mind if we kill rachel, i hate the witch

yea but you have to have faith that they did their best to give us the ending they really wanted to do, and for some of us, myself included, it was the perfect conclusion the series. You have to think that K and M felt the same about it, even if some/alot of the fans didnt. I don't think they set out to make an inferior ending, and I don't think they were displeased with the ending when they finally put it together.

You can't please em all. Sorry kat, I know its like to wait for build up to something for so long and have it let you down so much

Is there a difference between wanting to rush the ending and wanting to end it in 9 books?

yea...there is lol the idea that 9 books is a rushed ending is completely an opinion, in some peoples minds that is plenty of books to provide a complete conclusion
