The Underground (Animorphs, No 17)

Summary: Ax and the Animorphs have a weapon, but might not be lucky.
Review: "What's tasty, good for you, and only takes about sixty seconds to make? Oatmeal." If it's instant maple and ginger oatmeal, it's a weapon against the Yeerks. By the way, Yeerks are parasitic slugs that enter other living bodies through the ear canal, seep into the nooks and crannies in the brain, then take over the body and read its memories like a book.

So this oatmeal weapon sounds good right? But that's where your wrong. It might mean a trip to the Yeerk pool, a chance of running into Visser Three once again, and this time there might not be a way to get back to the surface. "The Animorphs and Ax have taken chances before and been very lucky. But this time their luck may be about to run out . . ."

Summary: I think yall might find this interestin'
Review: Book #17 opens with an incredible rescue: a crazed Controller leaps from the top of a skyscraper and the Animorphs, all in bird-of-prey morph must try and save him before he hits the ground. Book #17 is a Rachel book in which the Animorphs discover a very strange fact about the Yeerks: they have an odd addiction. This addiction allows them to be free of the need for kandrona rays, but at a price. The question facing the Animorphs is whether they can, or should, use this knowledge against the Yeerks. In the process the kids must find a new and terrifying way into the Yeerk Pool. A way that involves morphing bats and moles, among other things. Cool, huh? I got this off a chat. enjoy! Osprey

Summary: not the best
Review: In this book the Animorphs and Ax find out that instant rasien cinnimon oatmeal will make a Yeerk free from Kandrona, but the Yeerk will go insane. The Yeerk will stay in the host's head, no needing Kandrona, but the host will be in control almost all of the time. So the animorphs morphs moles and dig into a bat cave, then morphs bats and go into the Yeerk pool. Read the book to find out what happens next!

Summary: The Underground
Review: Rachel, the other Animorphs, and Ax have discovered a new super weapon against the Yeerks. It's easy to get. It's lightweight. It's instant oatmeal. It doesn't actually destroy the aliens, but its effect on them is so powerful that the kids know they have to try to use it. To help slow down the invasion. It means another trip down to the Yeerk pool. And the possibility of not being able to get back up to the surface.
