Meet the Sculmers. A mostly peaceful species living on Mercury. When a world-ending earthquake occurs only one Sculmer is able to escape. The most evil and bloodthirsty of all, he is known as the Annihilator. Will our protagonist and cat companion, Phantom, be able to escape his wrath?

From the publisher: “In September 2023, Grimm & Co's Saturday Afternoon Club began the journey of their novellas and extended writing projects. In the sessions over the next year, they worked hard on their writing, using their imagination to grow their ideas from nothing. They received advice from their novella buddies and authors which was reflected back in their writing. We are incredibly proud of all the young people's work, and hope in many years to come they look at their published writing with pride and fond memories.”
