THIS STORY IS UNDER REVISIONS FOR MAJOR FORMAT AND MINOR PLOT ELEMENTS. [The battle with the Yeerks changed many things for humanity. For starters, it introduced us to the undeniable reality that there is life beyond our little world. And it showed us just how dangerous that life can be.] It's years since five teenage humans fought off the invading Yeerk empire. Years since the gift of the Andalite, Prince Elfangor, helped them triumph in their secret battles. Years since all humanity finally learned about the reality of the grotesque parasitic slugs that had aimed to rule them, and the proud alien warriors who had chased them across the galaxy... Amazing how attitudes change in a few years. An enemy they couldn't see was scary enough. But now the people of earth are focused on an alien race they can see clearly, and it's pretty hard to miss that nasty blade on the end of their tails. Plus it can't be forgotten that they have turned on those they tried to help in the past. Rumours spread, and former controllers whisper about the origins of Yeerk space travel, and the reasons those menacing looking Hork-Bajir can't go home to their own planet. As distrust spreads, Cassie struggles to promote peace; and Rachel's family is torn apart by disagreement on where to stand in the conflict. Meanwhile on the Andalite home world human students are at risk; and aristh are being drilled by their Princes. Follow Cassie of the original Animorphs as she is joined by Rachel's sister Jordan and four all new characters in narrating this Megamorphs style volume.

**CURRENTLY A FEATURED STORY** highest ranking: #11 in Science fiction ❝true happiness is only achieved without freedom. There is a girl who wakes to a world that she was supposed to protect. Instead, she fights it. There is a man who is cursed with the ability to dream. A glass city is their cage, a city filled to the brim with unanimity and order, a paradise on an earth laid to waste by an artificial snowstorm. Sunlight filters through the glass buildings and through glass walls, pierces glass floors. It illuminates the city square when it is strongest at noon, surrounded by a huddled mass of citizens, all as perfect as the city they inhabit. And they all think: everything is as it should be. And it is. Or, it was. -- long live perfection.❞ (c)sarahgaier2016 #diverselit | #LoveEqualsLove | #helpfightcliches | #freethelgbtq | #badassreads check out my Science Fiction novella, Sector-33, here! https://www.wattpad.com/story/62174094-sector-33

Five-year-old Kendall Frodell is a genius and has been ever since she was born. The fact that she can and does read high school material, can mentally solve a wide array of equations, and has an incredible memory for trivia could've all easily skipped her from Kindergarten to fifth grade. But Kenny's intelligence (along with her voice) hides behind vague, situation-based index cards and rewritten answers. Things quickly change when she becomes afflicted with peculiar fainting spells-- ones where she walks, writes, and even solves equations while seemingly unconscious. Her erudition is unwillingly revealed, and she's whisked off to an academy for people like her. Very suddenly becoming aware of a whole society of gifted children, school has never been more challenging. An enforced social hierarchy, infamously harsh teachers, blockheaded children-- and the brief disappearances of her classmates only add to everything. In the style of both Ender's Game and the X-Men, The Prodigies is a piece of speculative fiction that will leave you...curious. Highest Ranking: #2 in Science Fiction [©2017-2018.

She plans to use his access to a major news network's cameras in order to warn the public of a massive syndicate, one that has sinister plans for her and the others like her.

Fortunately, she has a few technological tricks up her sleeve that might help them cheat the game rules and save us all.
