Something's not right about the Adventure Teen All-Stars, the neon-suited band of anonymous teenage superheroes that drive around in a technicolor van and wrestle warlocks into submission, capture caves of invasive trolls, and chase vampires into the burning sunlight. Parents may love them, but a group of the local high school kids are suspicious and for good reason. That suspicion leads to a riveting standoff between the "normal" teenagers and the beloved All-Stars, the outcome of which will change the city forever. Set against the backdrop of a fading California summer, The Adventure Teen All-Stars is powered by punk rock, wild house parties, secret meetings in the backs of nightclubs, and risky scuba-diving with a sleeping water demon. A searing suburban takedown, it's a stinging comedic novella about friendship, solidarity and revenge.
