Did that happen? That's be pretty fucking hardcore for a children's book.
It did!
I don't remember if that happened exactly but animorphs was pretty fucking dark, not just for a children's book series. They regularly get injuries which would absolutely be fatal if not for the morphing. The bulk of their enemies are their own mind controlled friends and family, and we do get scenes where we see said mind controlled people screaming and begging for death in cages between mind control sessions.
Holy shit I kinda want to reread them...
Animorphs is pretty great. We've got animal facts, we've got body horror, we've got brutal fights and teenage guerillas with PTSD. We've got moral dilemmas, well realized alien biology and sociology, fantastic characters and world changing stakes.
Oh, and also K. A. Applegate supports her trans daughter.
