Description

Sarabeth Lewis knows that anyone who's anyone will be at Teena McAuley's party this weekend. As it turns out anyone who isn't anyone will end up in Teena's basement. This includes Sarabeth. But the morning after, they're pretty glad.It's not going to be a good day when you emerge from a party you're not supposed to have been invited to find the house destroyed and almost everyone in bits. While Sarabeth and the other outcasts have been locked in the basement, the world appears to have ended - Sarabeth, Leo, Evan and Teena have become survivors of an alien invasion. Now they'll have to put their differences aside to save their town, themselves and quite possibly the world - and use everything they've got (including glittery-face paint) to squash some alien butt.
