Here is a Poof, near what some might consider a familiar landmark. |
Here is the same Poof, posing with "Dr. Hooves." |
The newest book in the series, CAMP ALIEN, debuted on May 3. See below for a excerpt:

Antoinette smiled. It was the first smile I'd seen her crack in a week, so go me. "Possibly in private. But right now, we need your help. Formally."
Nodded, and turned to look down the long conference table. "Excuse me, Alex?"
Emperor Alexander, Ruler of the Entire Alpha Centauri System — at least as far as anyone on Earth other than those of us who actually understood the political system over there knew — nodded his head toward me in a regal manner. "Yes, Kitty?"
"Dude, you're asking for food that makes humans literally want to barf their guts out. It's a no-go. And anyone else requesting personal national or planetary specialties, up to and definitely including haggis, need to run those requests through me. So that I can say no in the nicest possible way."
"That wasn't what we were going for," Antoinette said quietly.
"No problem, Kitty. But they're really delicious," Alexander said, sounding far more like what he really was — Jeff's and his cousin, Christopher White's, younger relative who we'd put onto the throne of Alpha Four — than the Ruler of the Free Alpha Centauri Worlds.
"Dude, gag me. Seriously. Never speak of those things again in my or any other human's presence and we'll continue to love you." Turned back to Antoinette. "Learn this now — I may have been forced to be the American Centaurion Ambassador, but don't for one moment think that I enjoyed the job. I get far better results by living by the cat motto of asking for exactly what I want. And that includes being the FLOTUS. By the way, FLOTUS really makes me feel like I'm costarring in a Finding Nemo spin-off as the chipper strip of seaweed that helps the gang save the day."
