The main cast of Animorphs are literally terrorists who do terrorism to thwart a covert alien invasion, killing civillians along the way, and they have huge internal drama and strife over this.

Actual Spoiler

Tobias basically gets stuck being a hawk/falcon permanently, and basically just... becomes one, almost entirely losing any traces of having once been a human being, a fair analogy to a solider with massive PTSD just... never being the same afterward.

It really is amazing that these books didn't get censored during the post 9/11 wave of propoganda and 'patriotism' that censored so many other things.

Also, random trivia: There does actually exist a single season of a TV adaptation of Animorphs.

It was poorly received, not renewed, and only got a VHS, not even DVD release at the time... but apparently it is on some streaming services nowadays.
