Galactic Hot Dogs is a three-book middle grade series about Cosmoe, a young adventurer who operates a food truck in space. What starts as a simple hot-dog-selling operation turns into a wild ride through the galaxy, with Cosmoe and his crew dodging villains, pirates, and various cosmic threats.
The series began as a digital serial on the Funbrain website before being published in print by Aladdin between 2015 and 2017. Brallier’s writing leans into absurd humor and fast-paced action, with illustrations by Douglas Holgate (who also illustrates The Last Kids on Earth). The books are designed for readers who like their sci-fi silly and their stakes low.
