"Terrifyingly fun! Delivers big thrills and even bigger laughs."--Jeff Kinney, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Diary of a Wimpy Kid
Ever since the monster apocalypse hit town, average thirteen year old Jack Sullivan has been living in his tree house, which he's armed to the teeth with catapults and a moat, not to mention video games and an endless supply of Oreos and Mountain Dew scavenged from abandoned stores. But Jack alone is no match for the hordes of Zombies and Winged Wretches and Vine Thingies, and especially not for the eerily intelligent monster known only as Blarg. So Jack builds a team: his dorky best friend, Quint; the reformed middle school bully, Dirk; Jack's loyal pet monster, Rover; and the fiercest girl Jack knows, June. With their help, Jack is going to slay Blarg, achieve the ultimate Feat of Apocalyptic Success, and be average no longer! Can he do it?
Told in a mixture of text and black-and-white illustration, this is the perfect series for any kid who's ever dreamed of starring in their own comic book or video game.

"Terrifyingly fun! Max Brallier's The Last Kids on Earth delivers
big thrills and even bigger laughs."--Jeff Kinney, author of the #1
New York Times bestseller Diary of a Wimpy Kid
* "Middle-grade readers, particularly boys, will find Jack’s
pitch-perfect mix of humor, bravado, and self-professed geekiness
impossible to resist. . . . The marriage of text and illustration
serves as a perfect example of what an illustrated novel can and
should be."--Kirkus Reviews, starred review
* "Terrifically funny . . . Snarky end-of-the-world
fun."--Publisher's Weekly, starred review
* "This book provides loads of laughs. . . . A gross-out good time
with surprisingly nuanced character development."--School Library
Journal, starred review
"The video-game-like plotting, gross-out humor, frequent
pop-culture references, and quippy dialogue make this a great
fit for reluctant readers. Recommend to Wimpy Kid fans looking for
a horror-lite adventure."--Booklist
"Young zombie fans will rejoice in this new series that has all the
oozing (by the zombies) and heroism (by the kids) that they could
hope for."--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books
