This installment offers more formulaic fun as twins Wally and Cheyenne Shluffmuffin try to foil the evil Ont queen's plans to take over the world. Greenburg's trademark gross humor and silly wordplay again paired with Fischer's humorous sketchlike illustrations makes this a good choice for the series's fans, although the conclusion isn't so much an ending as a setup for the next book.
