The Last Kids on Earth and the Doomsday Race

The Last Kids on Earth and the Doomsday Race by Max Brallier follows Jack Sullivan and his friends as they embark on a thrilling adventure. With Jack's zombie-controlling powers becoming stronger, the group sets out on a road trip toward the mysterious Tower, where they must stop the menacing Rezzoch the Ancient, Destructor of Worlds, from invading their dimension. However, their journey takes an unexpected turn when they are swept onto the back of the Mallusk, a giant centipede monster that carries an enormous shopping mall on its back.

Upon arriving at Mallusk City, they discover a thriving monster society, where they encounter both old allies and enemies who now rule with an iron fist. Jack realizes that defeating these villains in battle isn't an option, so he decides to run for mayor of Mallusk City. Initially, Jack's campaign involves typical political gestures like shaking hands, kissing babies, and promising fun, like strawberry Nesquik in the water fountains. But when the Mallusk comes under attack, Jack must rise to the occasion and learn the true meaning of leadership to save his friends and the city.
