No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened. Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents - unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers - that grow stronger by the day. It's a terrifying new world.

It’s autumn in the town of Harrow, but something besides the season is changing there. Because in that town there is an orchard, and in that orchard, seven most unusual trees. And from those trees grows a new sort of apple: strange, beautiful, with skin so red it’s nearly black. Take a bite of one of these apples, and you will desire only to devour another. And another. You will become stronger. More vital. More yourself, you will believe. But then your appetite for the apples and their peculiar gifts will keep growing—and become darker.

He graduated high school top of his class 17 times. Of course, no one knows any of this. Not that he wants to go unnoticed. It’s just safer that way.

I’m Val Thorvald, and I’m an assassin. When magical bad guys hurt people, I take care of them. Permanently. This doesn’t make me popular with the rest of the magical community — as you can tell from the numerous break-ins and assassination attempts I’ve endured over the years. But thanks to my half-elven blood, a powerful sword named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with an attitude, I’ve always been able to handle my problems with aplomb. Maybe some cursing and swearing, too, but definitely aplomb.

In Manhattan, a young grad student gets off the train and realizes he doesn't remember who he is, where he's from, or even his own name. But he can sense the beating heart of the city, see its history, and feel its power. In the Bronx, a Lenape gallery director discovers strange graffiti scattered throughout the city, so beautiful and powerful it's as if the paint is literally calling to her. In Brooklyn, a politician and mother finds she can hear the songs of her city, pulsing to the beat of her Louboutin heels.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 731
I’m Val Thorvald, and I’m an assassin. When magical bad guys hurt people, I take care of them. Permanently. This doesn’t make me popular with the rest of the magical community — as you can tell from the numerous break-ins and assassination attempts I’ve endured over the years. But thanks to my half-elven blood, a powerful sword named Chopper, and a telepathic tiger with an attitude, I’ve always been able to handle my problems with aplomb. Maybe some cursing and swearing, too, but definitely aplomb.

A childhood in a privileged household in 1950s Havana was joyous and cruel, like any other - but with certain differences. The neighbor's monkey was liable to escape and run across your roof. Surfing was conducted by driving cars across the breakwater. Lizards and firecrackers made frequent contact. Carlos Eire's childhood was a little different from most. His father was convinced he had been Louis XVI in a past life. At school, classmates were attended by chauffeurs and bodyguards. Then, in January 1959, the world changed....

one of my favorite animorphs
I always thought Tobias was the best character, I definitely identified with him the most, for a number of reasons. I remember reading this and the Andalite Chronicles and being floored by his connection to Elfangor. Rereading it, I realize how complex and mature this series can be at times. Applegate doesn't underestimate her reader's ability to absorb more "adult" themes, she gave me a love of science fiction and reading that has continued to this day and I couldn't be more thankful.

I love this series!
I really hope that this series continues to be made into audio books! Please don't forget to make the Megamorphs and Chronicles into audiobooks too as they are very much part of the experience!

Fantastic book---but Scholastic fails in one way
Tobias books are nearly always amazing in this series. They're always meaningful, deep, and very pivotal.
But this audiobook falls a bit flat because Scholastic has chosen not to adapt Megamorphs or Chronicles books. I'm this case the Andalite Chronicles and Hork-Bajir Chronicles are crucial to have read to understand all that occurs. They're also fantastic books.
So if Scholastic reads these reviews: adapt the ENTIRE series. Not just the mainline 54 books...You do the fans and new readers/listeners a great disservice otherwise.

Fabulous orator!
This is the best reading I’ve heard so far. The orator captured the emotions and nuances of each of the characters and really had me feeling the emotional turmoil that Tobias was experiencing. I would love if all of the orators could give the same passion to their readings. This was an amazing audio book in all aspects!

Voices
I really appreciate how Michael or the director remembered that when Tobias is morphed as Ket Halpek, he has her voice. I'll assume the one time he spoke directly to Bek in his own voice, it was thought speak, because I don't have a copy of the book to check.
