Talk:List of Animorphs books

Summaries
just a note, only the first few books have a summary, but the rest do not. shouldn't they all have summaries?
 * Yeah, I think we should try and give detailed summaries to all the books. I've written summaries for a few, but I can't properly remember the plots for all of the books, as it's been a long time since I've read them. Cyclone49 01:21, 1 February 2006 (UTC)

Should this be broken into multiple articles? It says it is too long.Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii 23:27, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
 * Hmm, I think should probably wait a bit before we do. Perhaps when each book has a long summary it should be split up. Cyclone49 05:36, 16 February 2006 (UTC)
 * I think now is a good time. I'd like a second opinion before I take care of it, though. --EndlessVince 04:54, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

As we're in the process of creating an individual article for each Animorph book, I'll start to link those to this page. --Matt 15:28, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

The only novels left that seem to need separate pages are #23: The Pretender, #46: The Deception, and Megamorphs #3: Elfangor's Secret.

Is it possible to list the reading order for the entire series? Including the Chronicles, Visser, etc.

The image gallery shatters the critera set at WP:NFCC. We cannot have this mamny book covers on one article. hbdragon88 19:55, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

There also needs to be a list of all the books (including the mega's and the chronicles) in a chronological order, You know in-world. I'll try to make one and If some one wants to take it off Tell me before you do it so I can save a copy on my pc. Arkkeeper (talk) 23:40, 17 January 2008 (UTC)

Chronological list
This list needs a new field numbering the chronological order of the books. It should not be a separate list, rather a new field in the existing list. The field is sortable so readers can sort along publication order or chronological order with one click. For creating sortable tables see Prix Goncourt as a template example (notice how some fields are sortable and others not).

The below list copied from Chronological list of Animorphs books which was deleted at Articles for deletion/Chronological list of Animorphs books.


 * The Andalite Chronicles (c. 1976, 1980s, 1997)

 * 19: The Departure
 * The Hork-Bajir Chronicles (1966, 1968–69, 1998)
 * Although the events in this story occur between The Ellimist Chronicles and The Andalite Chronicles, the entire story is being told by Jara Hamee to Tobias after book #13, The Change, and before the events of #23 The Pretender. Tobias makes reference to his restlessness and the fact that there were no missions planned (Prologue, pg ix). However, in The Pretender, (pg 12) Tobias makes reference to the fact that they had "worked plenty lately, dealing with the horrifying matter of David, the first new Animorph." This places the last possible "break" before book #20, the first book in the David trilogy.

Merger proposal
The IP user 69.42.10.109 opened Animorphs Chronicles, The Andalite's Gift, In the Time of Dinosaurs and Back to Before up for discussion for merging with this page in October 2014. Given that there has not been any discussion after a year and-a-half, I am closing this proposal. D ARTH B OTTO talk•cont 00:30, 22 February 2016 (UTC)

Redirect?
Why does this page's link to Megamorphs 3 (Elfangor's Secret) redirect back here? This doesn't seem to have happened to any of the other Megamorphs books. (Unsure about the rest of the series, though, since there are an awful lot of articles to check through.) Majutsukai (talk) 12:31, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
