      I never finished the serie, but when I googled it, turns out the end is grimm.

      spoiler

      Like the dude from the first book having PTSD/alcoholism and going in a suicide mission.

      A children's serie ends up with a fucked up main character pulling a hero-suicide

          There's the Audiomorphs podcast too, which is a bootleg audiobook of the entire series in podcast form.

        Lmao I'm dropping Animorphs knowledge all over this thread, but yes Tobias (the one animorph who, since his parents were abusive iirc, decided he didn't mind being trapped in a hawk's body - even when theoretically later on he could morph back to a human and stay in the form for 2 hours and be permanently human again) was a red-tailed hawk.
