For fans of Artemis Fowl and Percy Jackson & the Olympians comes the second book in Adam Rex's acclaimed Cold Cereal Saga, about three kids who must save the world from the diabolical schemes of an evil breakfast company. Scottish Play Doe and his friends may have escaped from the clutches of the evil Nimue, but they're not out of the woods just yet. The Goodco Cereal Company's quest to take over the world is quickly gaining momentum: it has already started to sell cereals containing the magical chemical Intellijuice and, what's worse, has kidnapped one of the world's most important public figures, the Queen of England, and replaced her with goblin impersonators. When Scott and the others learn that Goodco is holding the real queen captive in a magical other-England, they decide to pass through a rift in the time-space continuum and rescue her—and hopefully convince the faeries to stop the invasion that will bring about the end of the world as they know it. “Totally original and wholly brilliant.” - Eoin Colfer, bestselling author of the Artemis Fowl series, about Cold Cereal “With an off-the-wall sensibility that fans of the author’s The True Meaning of Smekday will recognize with delight, Rex brings together unconventional allies to be hunted by agents of the huge Goodco Cereal Company.” - Kirkus Reviews (starred review), about Cold Cereal “Rex takes his magically delicious premise seriously, finding the thin line between absurdity and comedy.” - Publishers Weekly, about Cold Cereal “The story is filled with wildly imaginative elements and clever wisecracks, but the humor is couched within a rich, complex plot that’s filled with engaging characters and concepts.” - School Library Journal (starred review), about Cold Cereal “An expansive cast of colorful characters keeps the surprises coming.” - The Horn Book, about Cold Cereal “Will leave readers anxious for the sequel.” - ALA Booklist, about Cold Cereal “Flat-out fabulous.” - Bruce Coville, author of My Teacher Is an Alien, about Cold Cereal “A mad mix of attacks, chases, squabbles and revelations goose the main plot along while setting the stage nicely for the closer.” - Kirkus Reviews “Rex’s delicious sense of humor is much in evidence here…great fodder for readers who really like to dig into their adventures like a hearty and well-balanced breakfast.” - Booklist “Second helpings, please!” - Jonathan Stroud, bestselling author of the Bartimaeus Trilogy, about Cold Cereal Have You Seen me? Name: Scottish Play Doe Age: 11 Last seen with twins Erno and Emily, their gargantuan housekeeper, Biggs, and an accountant named Merle Lynn who claims to be a scientist from the future or something, "Scott" is suffering from a sick delusion that your beloved Goodco Cereal Company is secretly run by a fairy named Nimue with a sinister plot to take over the world. That Goodco is selling cereals with NEW! Intellijuice in order to turn kids into a kind of zombie army, if you can believe this. That Goodco has kidnapped the Queen of England and replaced her with two goblins in a queen suit. Have you ever heard anything so crazy—seriously, we're asking. We at Goodco are not angry. We want only to see Scott get the help he needs before he hurts himself. Or gets hurt. Sightings of Scott with a two-foot-tall leprechaun named Mick are of course ridiculous and should be reported immediately to Goodco.
