Reviews

'Terrifyingly fun! Max Brallier's The Last Kids on Earth delivers big thrills and even bigger laughs.' Jeff Kinney, author of Diary of a Wimpy Kid

'this is the perfect book for any kid who's ever dreamed of starring in his or her own comic book or video game.', Critic, KIDSREADS.COM

'terrifically funny Holgates b&w cartoons mix splatter-and-slime-heavy action sequences with humorous character profiles (a portrait of a winged wretch points out the creatures huge, hooked talons like a freaking velociraptor), all playing into Jacks gamified take on post-apocalyptic life. Snarky end-of-the-world fun. Ages 812.', Reviewer, Publisher's Weekly
