War-mongering creatures known as the Battle Beasts have landed on Earth, searching for the mythical Dread Weapons. One woman, Bliss Reynolds, has translated the Beasts’ language and in the process uncovered the Dread Weapons.

Bliss, with her brother Tate, meets three noble Beasts— Vorin, Merk, and Gruntos. Unfortunately, a horde of blood-thirsty Beasts are also intent on finding Bliss!
