yeerks die once they reproduce...I guess that's a lifespan...and taxxons shouldn't have long lifespans because they're dead once they bleed...

still, if they choose not to reproduce, nothing lives forever...
esplin lived an awfully long time (esp. for a slug).

Okay, I've always wondered where the megamorphs fit in to the book series since I just ended up reading them randomly as they came in from the library when I first started reading them xP Can some one tell me where each book comes in to the series? I think Megamorph one comes after book # 7...

Megamorphs 1 comes between book 7 and 8. Megamorphs 2 comes between book 18 and 19. Megamorphs 3 comes between books 29 and 30, and Megamorphs 4 comes between book 40 and book 41.

I've been doing a bit of rereading, and I read over book 16. cassie says she's a horrible person for telling a boy not to trust his controller father. I never understood why that's a bad thing. Does anyone understand that part?

well, she's basically telling the poor kid not to trust his father.. (even though he is a controller)
that must seem pretty harsh for a kid..

Wow, that was fast.

Well, he knows about Yeerks. so he should understand that it's not really his dad he can't trust. Unless he was a really little kid. I know he's a kid, but the actual age is never mentioned.

cassie was just a tree hugging hippie. everything was hard for her to do, doesnt matter what it was really, i mean ya its bad for a kid, but the kid already knows something is wrong, so ya i dont know. cassie always seemed to feel bad for the bad guys a little too much

(is it too obvious i dont like cassie? :P)

Actually, they do say how old the kid is. At one point after they find all the names and who they are, they refer to him being nine years old.

And anyway, telling any kid, whatever the age, not to trust their father should be a hard thing to do. I mean, the kid sorta thought his dad was a yeerk and wanted to talk to him about it and keeps saying how he's freaked out by the fact that his dad could be one of them. Cassie tells him not to trust his dad. Can you imagine that? Like, you think your dad's going through something and suddenly this person out of nowhere says not to talk to your dad about it? Never to trust your dad, your father, again? I mean, don't you think that that is horrible?

I think that's pretty harsh, and besides, in the narration, Jake says something like he and Cassie are really close to their parents or something. So maybe Cassie was just imagining what it would be like to be suddenly told not to trust your father.

I'm a strong believer of the fact that Cassie acts with her conscious and acts the way that, well, most of the time, any human being should act. No one should want to fight and not feel guilty, no one should not want peace but they should always look out for any idea of peace no matter how small, and no one should ever feel good about telling someone not to trust their loved one :P

I don't know, I mean, this is just my opinion, but Cassie should feel horrible for saying that. Sure, she saved the kid, but at what cost? Losing a father?

She already knows she can't trust her parents. I don't get it. Now if the kid knew nothing about Yeerks, and she told him that without being able to explain anything about controllers, then yes. That would be hard.

I don't know. Maybe it's because I don't trust my parents completely, and I'm niot really close to either of them.

I'm with Estrid for the most part. I don't really like the fact that Cassie seemed to get everything in the series. Towards the end especially she was the ghostwriters pet.

I hated how she was the Ghost writer's pet, but still, she was my favorite character. I mean, yeah, she got annoying. But still, I think she acted human :P Mostly, I hated how Marco and Rachel were all: YAH LET'S DO IT, AS LONG AS WE WIN WHO CARES WHAT HAPPENS TO EVERYONE ELSE?!
