Description

The second instalment in this fun paranormal graphic novel, perfect for middle-grade fans of Emma Steinkellner and Victoria Jamieson.

BCRD lives on!

Mina is ready to roll... but her new team is nowhere to be found. After a summer skating around town looking in every dark corner for the Blood City Rollers, Mina and her other human teammate, Swan, are finally reunited with their squad at an abandoned asylum. It's old, creepy, and has a basement full of zombies... perfect.

But if the asylum is going to be the new freaky forever home for the Vamps, they'll have to fight for it. A new team of outcast monsters is also looking for a new home, and the only solution to a turf war this bloodthirsty is a Sudden Death Scrimmage.

Mina just wants to help her team win, but she can't help but feel like she still has to prove she belongs. And when the competition with Swan heats up, she'll have to learn that being a teammate isn't about being the best player... it's about being the best friend.

About the Author

V.P. Anderson (Author) Veronica Park (VP) Anderson (she/they) is a neurodivergent, queer, feminist millennial writer with a resume that Victor Frankenstein would disown for being \"a bit much.\" V's previous job titles include- award-winning community theater actor, professional lecturer on cruise ships, indie film producer, literary agent, and creative project manager; however, \"writer\" is the title that always fits. V plays competitive flat track roller derby as \"Scarlet Five\" #55 and prefers the pivot role, aka \"surprise jamming.\" Born in Alaska and raised in Oregon, she currently lives with her partner in Upstate NY and has two cats named Skeletor and Bo-Catan. Tatiana Hill (Illustrator) Tatiana Hill (she/her) is a Black and Latina illustrator by day and roller skater by night. Her art journey began alongside her love for anime in the early 2000s and culminated with a BA in Animation. Receiving awards for Best Art Direction, she would later apply her skill set in color and design to illustration. Born in Los Angeles and a member of the roller skate community there, Tatiana enjoys participating in a space that celebrates diversity, identity, and found family. She illustrated The Roller World Tarot deck and Blood City Rollers, her debut graphic novel as an illustrator.
