The novels of this series met with a poor critical reception from many fans. Complaints included the relatively small roles played by the characters from the movies, their acting out of character, the simplicity of the plots, and that each novel had a heavy-handed environmentalist message (ranging from saving the whales to the greenhouse effect to air pollution).
