Visit us online at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - On the east edge of the Land of Oz, in the Munchkin Country, is a big, tall hill called Mount Munch. One one side, the bottom of this hill just touches the Deadly Sandy Desert that separates the Fairyland of Oz from all the rest of the world, but on the other side, the hill touches the beautiful, fertile Country of the Munchkins. The Munchkin folks, however, merely stand off and look at Mount Munch and know very little about it; for, about a third of the way up, its sides become too steep to climb, and if any people live upon the top of that great towering peak that seems to reach nearly to the skies, the Munchkins are not aware of the fact. But people DO live there, just the same. The top of Mount Munch is shaped like a saucer, broad and deep, and in the saucer are fields where grains and vegetables grow, and flocks are fed, and brooks flow and trees bear all sorts of things. There are houses scattered here and there, each having its family of Hyups, as the people call themselves. The Hyups seldom go down the mountain, for the same reason that the Munchkins never climb up: the sides are too steep.
Thousands of years ago, Lord Devi, one of three rulers of the Underworld, became greedy and tried to gain control. A battle ensued; Grim the Reaper was victorious and imprisoned Lori Devi for eternity. That is until Kitti, a three-foot, eleven-inch bunny, unwittingly releases the demon while on a school field trip to the Museum of Boring Artifacts. As the three-horned Lord Devi emerges from a red and black tomb shrouded in chains, Grim the Reaper, Kitti's adoptive father, battles the demon once again. Grim loses his grip and is sucked through a portal. Lord Devi declares victory and disappears. Kitti, also known as "Death Bunny," vows to rescue his father and defeat Lord Devi. Kitti is aided in his quest by a host of quirky characters. There's Pandy, the fudge-loving panda bear; Zorg-10, a ten-foot robotic creature; Kurri, a giant caterpillar who undergoes metamorphosis; and Zom B. Me and Zom B. She, two zombie skeletons. Together they battle a malevolent bounty hunter, armies of demons, and a giant dragon monster. Will this band of faithful fighters overcome evil, return peace to the Underworld and reunite Kitti with his father?

And she's sure that whatever happened to her father in his starship could happen to her. When she made it outside the protective shell of her planet, she heard the stars - and it was terrifying. What she learned turned her world upside down. Everything Spensa's been taught is a lie. But Spensa also learned a few things about herself - and she'll travel to the end of the galaxy to save humankind if she needs to.
