Dr. Critchlore's School for Minions is the premier supplier of minions to Evil Overlords throughout the Greater Porvian Continent. Twelve-year-old Runt Higgins has grown up as Dr. Critchlore's ward, a werewolf who couldn't keep up with the other pups. Now Runt's determined to make it into the elite Junior Henchman Training Program so the pack who abandoned him will be so proud, they'll take him back. But that won't happen if the school closes down, a fate that grows likelier as disasters keep striking with alarming regularity. Runt decides to find the saboteur himself, since nobody knows the school better than he does-and hasn't he got the keen senses, strength, and speed that werewolves are known for? No, actually, because Runt isn't a werewolf. And nobody at the school has the heart to tell him.Runt might be just a puny human, but he's the only person who can figure out who's planning the sabotage and save the school-and Dr. Critchlore himself-from total destruction.
