What if life on earth was an intergalactic game show, and our pets were the evil animal overlords?
Meet Griff, an eleven-year-old kid with innumerable allergies who's just been told he's the only one who can save the world.
The trouble is, this prophecy comes with a warning: 'Watch your back, man . . . your PETS are not what they seem . . .'
Featuring a talking axolotl, a diabolical game show, and trademark Blabey humor, Game of Pets is a hilarious illustrated adventure that will have you looking at your pets with heavy suspicion!
