Plot Summary
The war on Earth isn’t the only battle the Animorphs can’t afford to lose. Earth stands on the edge, ready to plunge into the raging war between Yeerks, Pythagi, Andalite, and Anati. But when Earth’s most powerful pro-war advocate comes to Alpha front, he’ll become a target the Yeerks just can’t resist.
But, as always, there is a complication. A high-ranking Controller has been arrested and is about to be turned over to Tri-I. When that happens, Tri-I will know everything and the superpowers that be will go to war on their own scale.
