English
By (author): Mike Chen
From the New York Times bestselling author of Star Wars: Brotherhood
A love letter to the power of music, this thoughtful, humorous exploration of what constitutes living versus mere survival sees Chen (Light Years from Home) at the top of his game. Publishers Weekly starred review
A strong emotional core carries Chens (Light Years from Home, 2022) latest, which is ultimately about healing from old wounds and learning how to embrace life again after losseven if youre dead. Booklist
Being a vampire is far from glamorousbut it can be pretty punk rock.
Everything youve heard about vampires is a lie. They cant fly. No murders allowed (the community hates that). And turning into a bat? Completely ridiculous. In fact, vampire life is really just a lot of blood bags and night jobs. For Louise Chao, its also lonely, since she swore off family ages ago.
At least shes gone to decades of punk rock shows. And if she can join a band of her own (while keeping hersituation under wraps), maybe shell finally feel like she belongs, too.
Then a long-lost teenage relative shows up at her door. Whether its Ians love of music or his bad attitude, for the first time in ages, Louise feels a connection.
But as Ian uncovers Louises true identity, things get dangerousespecially when he asks her for the ultimate favor. One that goes beyond just familyone that might just change everything vampires know about life and death forever.
