Bookroo's summary

Two-Headed Chicken, armed with the AstroCap and TimeCap, unleashes chaos by using both at once, trapping them in darkness. Escaping to the Cosmic Library, they leap through iconic stories, pursued by Kernel Antlers, a moose with a taste for chicken. As they disrupt beloved tales, will they find a way back, or remain lost in literary madness? Join the zany journey filled with puzzles, jokes, and unexpected twists.

From the publisher

It’s nonstop goofy comedy as Two-Headed Chicken invades other books in this third graphic novel adventure from New York Times best-selling creator Tom Angleberger. Our zany hero, Two-Headed Chicken, has traveled the multiverse using the AstroCap and romped through the chronoverse using the TimeCap. Now they dare to ask: What happens if they use both caps at the same time? Answer: Chaos! Unfortunately, the chaos is so ridiculous that the reader slams their book closed, trapping the double-noggined main character in eternal darkness. But wait! Two-Headed Chicken escapes into the Cosmic Library, which contains every book ever written. Now, still pursued by the chicken-hungry moose Kernel Antlers, Two-Headed Chicken hops their way through a parade of familiar titles, from a hundred-acre wood to a kissy vampire novel, interacting with the befuddled characters and leaving mayhem in their wake. With interactive puzzles and activities and wall-to-wall jokes, Tom Angleberger delivers another absurdist delight in this madcap series.
