In the final episode of the ZomBert Chronicles, can Bert and Mellie foil a plot to turn the entire town of Lambert into ravenous zombie consumers?
A thrilling finale to an arch mystery-adventure series pits Bert the cat against the infamous YummCo Labs. Bert was a bedraggled stray before nine-year-old Mellie Gore adopted him—and has already escaped from YummCo once, vowing to find a way back to free the other captives. Now the Yumms have nabbed Bert again, and he wants revenge. Mellie's plans to rescue her pet are interrupted when the entire town, including her own parents, begin turning into YummCo-product-consuming zombies. And why is Mellie herself suddenly starved for food to fuel her buzzing brain? What exactly is happening at the YummCo Labs? With trademark wit and a taste for the playfully macabre, award-winning creators Kara LaReau and Ryan Andrews close out the ZomBert Chronicles with a funny and suspenseful flourish.

      Can Bert the cat and his human girl, Mellie, save their town (and maybe the world)? Picking up right where the second volume left off, Bert, aka Y-91 (not a zombie but a victim of medical experiments who now has sort-of superpowers), has been captured by the Big Boss of YummCo. Mellie and her friends, free of the influence of mind-control drug Yummconium, are intent upon rescuing Bert and finding an antidote for the townspeople of Lambert. All the while, the Big Boss and her lab tech henchmen Greg and Kari are focused on getting control of the world population via Yummconium and mesmerism. Can Bert complete his mission of rescuing all the animals in the lab? Can Mellie rescue Bert and her mind-controlled family? Or will the Big Boss succeed in turning the world's population into mindless consumers of everything YummCo? Even readers who have worked their way through the previous two (slim) volumes might be a bit lost at first, as there's little attempt to catch readers up on the slightly silly plot. Alternating perspectives in the chapters can be a bit jarring. Weak character development and a predictable plot limit this one's appeal to readers of the other volumes. Andrews' cartoon black-and-white illustrations are the best feature. Images depict Mellie as dark-skinned. Final art not seen. Not quite funny, not quite exciting, not quite worth your time. (Science fiction. 6-10)
