Publisher's summary

Cassie's had it. After the last mission, she realizes she's getting tired of missions. Tired of battles. Tired of being an Animorph.

She decides that she just can't do it anymore. So she quits.

But the war for her planet isn't so easy to quit. It seems a human-Controller named Karen followed Cassie after the last run-in with the Yeerks, and she knows Cassie has the ability to morph. If she exposes Cassie, it's all over. No more Cassie. No more Animorphs. No more planet Earth.

Amazing!

this was one of my favorite books in the series! I'm so glad I got to hear it! And Sisi did an amazing job reading and so did Macleod! I loved having both their voice on one book. Well done!!!

This is getting intense!

Wow! Another outstanding performance from Sisi! This volume really had me holding my breath at so many points, and shook things up in the last few chapters!

One of my favorites

The Departure is one of my all-time favorites in the series. It's truly one of the best examples of morality in the series and sets the tone for the remainder of the series. For me, this entry is a turning point in the series where it turns from middle grade to young adult/adult.

Narration was great, as always. They really got a great cast for this series!

possibly my new all-time favorite

I was literally brought to tears multiple times. The way the yeerk described being able to see color for the first time was exactly how it felt as a trans girl starting estrogen.
