Blood City Rollers by V.P. Anderson combines roller derby with the paranormal underworld in this engaging graphic novel. It's perfect for fans of Emma Steinkellner and Victoria Jamieson.

Skates on. Fangs out. Let's roll.

Ice-skater Mina is on a one-track path to Olympic gold and glory—until she wipes out at her biggest competition and is kind of kidnapped by undead kids on roller skates. Thrust into the high-stakes world of Paranormal Roller Derby, she finds herself "recruited" by a squad of vampires who need a human player to complete their team—just in time to save the league from losing it all.

Between learning to play derby well enough to kick butt on the track, developing a crush on the dreamy team captain, and navigating the spooky rules of the supernatural, Mina must go from striving to be a ten alone to becoming one of nine chaotic bodies forming a perfectly-imperfect team.

Forget being the best. Will she be enough to help her new friends survive the season?

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.
