Grazlax Attacks is the second story of the first series of Wizards vs Aliens.

Synopsis

Part 1

Tom Clarke’s quiet Saturday at Benny Sherwood’s house becomes a thrilling fight for their lives when vicious aliens known as Grazlax hunt them down. The two boys must learn to fight together, combining Tom’s magic with Benny’s science, or the Nekross’ savage pets will succeed – and devour them!

Part 2

The Grazlax are out of control! But Tom’s used up all of his magic, and Benny’s scientific genius is useless against creatures from beyond the stars. It’s a race against time for both humans and Nekross, as the Grazlax menace grows – but will stopping the rampage leave any survivors at all?
