Who Turned off the Colors? (Xander and the Rainbow-Barfing Unicorns)

Description

The Rainbow-Barfing Unicorn virus hasn't infected humans . . . until now! In this adventure, twelve-year-old Xander contracts the mysterious virus of the Rainbow-Barfing Unicorns. The virus gives the unicorns their barfing abilities, but it's having the opposite effect on Xander--it's draining him of any color at all! Xander's fate lies in the hands--er, hooves--of Ronk, the most dimwitted of all Rainbow-Barfing Unicorns. This is not good. In fact, this is bad--really, really bad. Plump-full of grotesquely delightful characters and fantastical realms, Xander and the Rainbow-Barfing Unicorns--from writer Matthew K. Manning (Batman/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Adventures)--is so epic it'll make you wanna puke

Be prepared for plenty of gross-out humor and copious amounts of technicolor vomit issued by unicorns afflicted with a zombie virus. . . .For the right reader, XANDER AND THE RAINBOW-BARFING UNICORNS is going to be a lot of fun, and as each book is a stand-alone containing its own adventure with a quick recap of how this all started, kids should be able to drop into any of the six books (thus far) with little to no confusion.-- "Fantasy Literature"
