Publisher Comments:

When his parents go away for two weeks, Victor goes on his own vacation — right at home! Now he can stay up as late as he wants and watch his favorite television shows! After the late, late show one night, something strange happens. A band of lizards appears on the screen, playing the most outrageous music Victor has ever heard. They're not in the TV listings, but every night, they're there. With the help of the Chicken Man, Victor is able to track down the lizards. The journey takes him to Thunderbolt City, on a trip that will change the way Victor sees the world forever.

Synopsis:

When left to take care of himself, a young boy becomes involved with a community of intelligent lizards who tell him of a little known invasion from outer space.

I am 33 now but I read this book in about 7th grade and loved it. Just today Dec. 3rd 2008 I was able to track the book back down and I am on a quest to get a personal copy. I was a very enjoyable story and i highly recommend it to anyone old or young alike.
