Fan-ending to "Animorphs" from sf writer's daughter
SF writer Lynda Williams sez, "My daughter (18) cared SO much about the ending of the Animorph series 'selling out' the readers that loved it with a nasty ending, that she has taken a whole year off school (sigh! be careful what you model!) to write an alternative ending as good as the books ever were! And she did it despite knowing it had to be considered fan fic and couldn't be a way to start a writing career -- just because she really, really cared."The Yeerks know who we are and the world knows about them. An open war. But at the moment, it was basically one- sided.Link (Thanks, Lynda!)Marco and I were riding the thermals created by Dracon beams. Dracon beams shooting down from one low-hovering Bug Fighter. Dracon beams that were cutting through our town like a hot knife through butter.
People were crowding to get out of buildings but had only seconds to get away. Most of the people leaving houses escaped, but those in twenty-story buildings were not so lucky. The Yeerks know who we are and the world knows about them. An open war. But at the moment, it was basically one- sided.
