A belated but heartfelt happy pub day to Carrie Harris’ awesome DEMON DERBY, which was released on July 8th. I’m gonna steal right from Carrie’s awesome website for the cool details:
Casey kicked cancer’s ass. Now a demon wants to kick hers….
Casey hates being known as the girl who survived cancer. She wants to feel like her old self, fearless and strong. And after a creepy encounter with a crazy guy, Casey is all about reclaiming her power.
So when she has a chance to try out for the Apocalypsies roller derby team, she jumps on it. Being a derby girl would prove that she doesn’t need anybody’s pity. It doesn’t hurt that Michael, the team manager, is hot. And, apparently, not even human.
Michael’s got a secret: he trains demon hunters. That creepy guy? Demon. And the fact that Casey went head to head with evil and lived makes her a threat to demonkind. Casey thought she’d already fought and won the battle of her lifetime. But it’s only beginning….
From Carrie Harris, author of BAD TASTE IN BOYS and BAD HAIR DAY comes a knockout new read for anyone facing their own demons—inside and out.
