Children often yearn for a pet. And twelve-year-old Brenna is no different. But when electrically charged aliens disguise themselves as pets and invade every home, she wonders if pets are such a great idea after all. Because the creature living in her house may look like a cat... sometimes. And it may act like a cat... sometimes. But it is something else underneath, something alien and dangerous. Because it has turned her parents into pet gushy slaves that answer to its every whim. Now her parents have forgotten Brenna - her name, even that she exists.Brenna, her best friend, Baxter, and the other children are immune to the aliens' control. But not forever. Soon they will come of age. Soon they too will be old enough to be controlled. Before time runs out for her and the other children of Earth, she must search for a weakness that will defeat the aliens, free the adults from their mind control, and return her family to her. A unique coming of age story, PETDEMONIUM is a sci-fi adventure told with heart and humor as the children of Earth try to save their world from this strange aliens-in-disguise invasion.
