Klawde: Evil Alien Warlord Cat

Klawde is not your basic cat. He's an emperor from another planet, ex

In book five of the Klawde series, our malevolent feline warlord has absolutely had it with this dismal planet. What's the point in conquering such an insignificant corner of the galaxy? In fact, why settle for just one planet, when there's an entire universe to rule? Luckily for Klawde, the Emperor of the Universe has stepped down, and there is an election being held to fill this coveted position. Finally, the universe is open for the taking. But Klawde encounters a challenge he never considered before: democracy.

So with Barx and Raj by his side, Klawde begins the campaign of his life. Can he win enough hearts and minds to become... Emperor of the Universe?

Heavily illustrated, with a hilarious, biting voice that switches between Raj's and Klawde's perspectives, this is the story of an unlikely friendship that emerges between a boy and the evil cat who arrived on his doorstep.
