The story about ZomBert the cat, which escaped a laboratory and was found by Mellie and her best friend Danny. The cat has some unusual hunger for animal heads only, leaving the bodies for Mellie to find. Meanwhile, Mellie and Danny have to face the school bully and YummCo, the corporation ZomBert escaped, is on the hunt for him. What's so special about this weird cat?
While I loved the plot, I could not really bond with the characters. Mellie and Danny were OK, Mellies family and the YummCo people were ridiculous and annoying. And while I knew this was the first book in a series, the ending came so abruptly right in the middle of things that at first I wondered whether the ebook file was defective and missing some pages. Overall, an enjoyable read for young readers, but make sure to have the sequel ready or you might end up 'cliffhanging' disappointed.
