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 ... Holgate's b&w cartoons mix splatter-and-slime-heavy action sequences with humorous character profiles (a portrait of a "winged wretch... points out the creature's "huge, hooked talons like a freaking velociraptor...), all playing into Jack's gamified take on post-apocalyptic life.
