Bookroo's summary

Griff, an 11-year-old with countless allergies, discovers he's humanity's last hope against a cosmic game show. Guided by Bob, a talking axolotl, Griff must navigate a world where pets hide sinister secrets. As the fate of Earth hangs in the balance, Griff faces a daunting prophecy: trust no one, especially not your furry friends. Will he unravel the mystery in time, or will our beloved companions be our downfall? Dive into a whirlwind adventure where nothing is as it seems, and every bark or purr could spell disaster.

From the publisher

Mega-bestselling author Aaron Blabey, creator of The Bad Guys, is back! OK, here’s the situation: Thanks to a diabolical intergalactic game show, we are all cooked. Luckily, Griff, an 11-year-old kid with innumerable allergies, just got told by a talking axolotl named Bob that Griff is the only one who can save us. I mean, that’s kind of good news, right? Trouble is, Bob’s prophecy comes with a warning: “Watch your back, man…your PETS are not what they seem…” Prepare to have your mind blown and your cats and dogs under heavy suspicion. It’s time to buckle up for an insane, laugh-out-loud new series, 260 million years in the making…
