Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great book to read
Review: Do you you like to read books that are out of this world, because if you do this book is good for you.
I give Animorphs "Visser" Four stars because I think it's a reallt good book,but not the best.This book is about an alien that's at the highest rank Visser One. These aliens are called Yeerks. Yeerks go into peoples brains and over controls them.
Well Visser one is on trail and he doesn't want to be found gulity. Visser three on the other hand want's him the be found gulity. Soon Visser One's only hope to live is to call his host's son Marco for help.If you really like books that do with aliens try reading this book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Not Living Up To Its Name
Review: I generaly like Animorph books in that I am a large fan of science-fiction. This was slightly disspointing for me in that the actual Animorphs were barely featured. In its place was a boring plot with a few long words and catchy names. Not very interesting. If you would like something better, I recommend the Andelite Cronicals instead. I find that a much better read.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Best

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A MUST Read!!!
Review: This book is just great. This is the only, I mean it, the only book written completely from the villian's point of view. And, as always, K.A Applegate's writing style made me feel sorry for the villain, I felt like going to Marco and the others and telling them point blank that they were after the wrong race.

It's just amazing how she does that. You just feel you're there. For the last couple of months I've been having these wierd dreams with all of them in it, it's just miraculous. Also the twist in the story is very good but surprising as I'm guessing that not many of you people believe that she has a consience. It fits in perfectly with the real series and I loved every second in which I read it, I hope you will too.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bobby's review
Review: This book is not part of the Animorph series but it has a lot about the Animorphs in it. In this book Visser one is on trail for treason. During the trail you learn how the Yeerks first found and began to conquer Earth. This book isn't hard to read but has very good content. The book has very few hard vocabulary words. It also contains content that is suitible for children. This book was action packed and suspensful. The most action filled part is when the Animorphs storm the court room. The most suspenseful part was when Visser one was waiting for the verdict of the jury. I would recomend this book to children ages 8-12 and adults who like science fiction. Although easy to read, it can be a good book for many people.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: nice

Summary: Among the very best in the ANIMORPHS series
Review: This is among the best, if not *the* best Animorphs book I've ever read. It could be considered a "backstory novel" (as the other two similar books, the Andalite Chronicles and the Hork-Bajir Chron.) since during Edris's trial she recounts in detail exactly how she went about targeting Earth for invasion. But it also has a lot of relevance to the "present day" Animorphs series. Somewhere in the middle of the novel it takes off where a cliffhanger in Animorphs #35 left off...except with a different point of view. Visser One, the main character of this book, was facinating to read about; her personality crafted from a large number of conflicing positions, and how one person can hatefully accomplish an evil purpose yet at the same time act out of genuine love. This book was somewhat dark, and the ending may leave you feeling depressed, as it isn't exactly a happy "everything's okay now" ending. Even the general emotion derived from the narrative is a bit of a downer. However, this an excellent book I reccomend for anyone who likes Animorphs -- I would reccomend it for anyone, but unless you've read the two "Chronicles" books and quite a few series books, (particularly the ones with Visser One in them or focus on Yeerks in general) the characters and themes will have little meaning. Though those who are not long-time readers of Animorphs will be surprised at such a detailed and sympathatic narrative by one who is normally a villain -- the highest general of the "evil" bodysnatching, parasitic aliens. Read it today!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Truly one of the best Animorphs yet-Applegate wrote this one
Review: Those other writers who she acknowledges in "helping"with the manuscripts aren't found in here, so you definitely know thatit's pure Applegate.

Although #35 The Proposal spoils the idea that Visser One isn't dead early for fans, they are sure to be pleased with learning how the Yeerks found Earth. It follows the journey of the future Visser One, who is attracted to the human race and is somewhat addicted to it. Although she really didn't want to contact the Empire and tell them of the planet(there's a love interest with another Yeerk in here that), she eventually sets up The Sharing and finally finds Marco's mom. This is all revealed as Visser One is on trial before the Council of Thirteen, with Visser Three trying to get her in more trouble than she already is. I like the clever tie-in with #35's last chapter, and the ending just leaves the fans knowing that soon another Visser will arrive to take charge, but that won't happen for another ten books.

I suggest you read it, and get to know the true story of the Yeerks. It's the darkest yet from K.A., and will guarantee to enlighten every fan.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: The Visser Trials
Review: Visser 1, the first Human-controller in Yeerk history and highest ranking general of the Yeerk Empire, is on trial for treason. Her interrogator is none other than Visser 3, the only Yeerk ever to take an Andalite host, and the leading Council of Thirteen are both the jury and the judges. This is definitely a must read by any fan of the Animorphs. It is also a decent place for a new reader to pick up the story. K.A. Applegate has finally given some insight into the mind of one of the most important Yeerks in the Empire. For anyone who wanted to know exactly what happened to Marco's mother or how the Yeerks first found and began their infiltration of Earth, here's your book.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Visser
Review: Visser is the story of Visser One and Three going head to head in a trial with the Council of Thirteen. Visser One is being acused by Visser Three for being a traitor. This book tells the story of how Visser One came to Earth and discovered a "class 5" species, humans it tells how she started the invasion. This book is great for those who liked the Andalite and Hork-Bajir chronicles because it tells of the story before the animorphs. Recommended.
