Alas reply: "
I'm sorry but I don't see how we can do that. 
Best,
Michael"
I suggest that we all band together on one post called 'animorphs encyclopedia questions', summarise any simple, important questions, that are necessary for most fanfiction writers to know and they cannot interpret or decide for themselves (for example we can decide based on text if our Andalites are stoics or Shinto but we can't know how long a single yeerk generation lasts). Then someone with better social skills then me (and besides i have probably used my fanatical fan patience quota), emails it in and hope they can answer atleast a few questions. I would suggest either terenia or anijen...

I'd be willing to help with a project like that, I just started a series re-read a few days ago. Also, I never knew how dark the series could be when I was younger! :o

 Hmm... maybe they'll just redo all the books with cooler updated covers and leave everything else the same? ya know, make it more hip or something.

I don't think rewriting it without the original authors would do much.

and, scholastic could just try and create a new audience aimed at pre-teens.

Nah, I don't see the point.


Plus I can barely keep up with this one forum.

going to be very hard.

every publisher in the industry is trying to get their own version of Twitlight aimed at teens just coming of age.

Good!  
And futz continuity, we are in the year of the reboot!
And perhaps they should aim a bit higher, split the difference between the old fans and the new.

Dunno if "Twitlight" was a typo or intentional, but I applaud you nonetheless.

Same here actually. Remember when vamps were supposed to be scary, not sexual?

to get slightly back on topic, someone was saying that if they could make a few changes (this was one of many things) one of them would  be making Marco fully hispanic (this person was himself hispanic). I am assuming that his assement was based on Marco"s description of his father as being lighter (light brown eyes with dark brown as opposed to black hair) and taller than Marco or Eva and that his mother wasn't born in America and she spoke spanish. I always assumed that Marco was fully hispanic it's just that his father was more spanish (like apparently in Argentina distinctions are made between spaniards and native Mayan or Inca etc) and Eva was Aztec or Mayan or Inca and spoke spanish because she had been born in latin america (my preference is for Aztec in Mexico)

Everyone knows Marco is hispanic (it even explicitly says so) but is half or full? I am making the case for full but different kinds of hispanic (fully spanish father and aztec or mixed mother) I wish we knew his surname
