"When Rocket undergoes a dastardly transformation, Groot battles to remind him who he truly is--but will that only leave the walking, talking tree in the dictatorial Lord RakZoon's torture dungeon? RakZoon may be short, but he casts a long shadow over his empire--one that may bring about a bleak future for the galaxy's greatest friendship! Is this the end for Rocket and Groot? Or will Raccoon-narok come later, when Rocket and Groot get kidnapped by space Vikings? And in between all this drama, there's fun and games to be had--with our heroes as ringers in an intergalactic football league and having an epic game of one-upmanship!"--From publisher.
