New Releases by Max Brallier

A very funny post-apocalyptic graphic novel, now a New York Times bestseller!

"Terrifyingly fun! Delivers big thrills and even bigger laughs."--Jeff Kinney, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Diary of a Wimpy Kid
 
The zombies are disappearing. This might seem like a good thing, since zombies eat your brains, but normal human kid Jack Sullivan is suspicious. He keeps hearing an eerie shrieking noise that seems to be almost summoning the zombies—but to where, and for what (probably) foul purpose?
 
Jack, his three best friends (maybe the only people left on Earth), and their pet monster Rover need to get to the bottom of this. Along the way they encounter a lot more than they bargained for, including a giant Wormungulous, a pizza parlor monster hangout, an ancient evil who destroys worlds, and a stereo system that is totally the bomb. Can Jack figure out why the zombies are vanishing . . . before he and his friends are next?


From the Hardcover edition.

"After a monster apocalypse hits town, average thirteen-year-old Jack Sullivan builds a team of friends to help slay the eerily intelligent monster known as Blarg"--

The third book in Max Brallier's middle-grade series. Jack Sullivan and his friends — June, Quint, and Dirk — are living in their post-apocalyptic treehouse when they learn of a powerful new threat: the Nightmare King, an ancient evil that commands monsters and could end what's left of their world. The group embarks on a quest to stop it, blending humor, video-game-style action, and Doug Holgate's cartoon illustrations throughout. Like the rest of the series, it's aimed at roughly ages 8–12 and leans heavily on fun over fear.
