“Get ready.”
– Happy Cloud, in the next book, and me, on the back cover of this one
Gub the Cowboy is no stranger to making poor choices, but his latest knocks the rest out of the park. When Gub accidentally unleashes the Portapotty, a sentient outhouse with the power to turn Practical Forecasters into sickeningly dapper shadows of their former selves, he is catapulted into a lifestyle of complete insanity as he attempts to evade the Portapotty and save his brother, Bub, from its foul-smelling clutches.
Featuring many-winged Noewings, unusually large meat tenderizers, subterranean laboratories, Tubby Custard factories, baguette longswords, Butterlandian surgeons, “B”s that stand for Boy, and everything in between, join Gub as he gets caught up in a million problems that aren’t even his own… and finds that they somehow end up connecting. As the Portapotty’s reach grows ever longer and catastrophe after catastrophe attempts to strike him down, Gub is forced to reckon with his own courage and wonder if the Practical Forecasters are really as invincible as they seem.
