  ways that Jack and his friends figure out to defeat them.<br /><br />Ever
  since the monster apocalypse hit town\, average thirteen year old Jack Su
 llivan has been living in his tree house\, which he&rsquo\;s armed to the 
 teeth with catapults and a moat\, not to mention video games and an endles
 s supply of Oreos and Mountain Dew scavenged from abandoned stores. But Ja
 ck alone is no match for the hordes of Zombies and Winged Wretches and Vin
 e Thingies\, and especially not for the eerily intelligent monster known o
 nly as Blarg. So Jack builds a team: his dorky best friend\, Quint\; the r
 eformed middle school bully\, Dirk\; Jack&rsquo\;s loyal pet monster\, Rov
 er\; and Jack&rsquo\;s crush\, June. With their help\, Jack is going to sl
 ay Blarg\, achieve the ultimate Feat of Apocalyptic Success\, and be avera
 ge no longer! Can he do it?<br /><br /><br /><strong>About the Author:</st
