“An adorable, exciting, and heartfelt story that turns the ‘chosen one’ trope on its big floppy ear… The concept — a corgi with superpowers — grabs your attention immediately, and I am delighted to report that the rest of the book more than follows through. What I especially love is how the book pairs sci-fi action and clever, snarky comedy with deeper lessons about how war affects ordinary people, and how no group of people — even the ’bad guys’ — is a monolith. 10/10, no notes.”

"Kahn and Brooks’ playful intergalactic adventure is filled with both comedy and space-battle action made all the more delightful by the cheerful, adorable corgi, who travels on a rainbow beam through space to defeat their enemies.[...] Middle-graders looking for the intersection of action-adventure and adorable should look no further."
