Rock Band Fights Evil is a fast-paced and fun series that follows the adventures of a ragged bar band of cursed musicians who are fighting to get leverage against the powers of Hell. Jim, the lead singer, is Satan’s own son, who bears a grudge against the First Prince of Hell since his lover lost an infernal wager and found herself one of the damned. Eddie, the guitarist, sold his soul at the crossroads for the gift of becoming the greatest rock and roll musician ever, but he forgot to specify an instrument—thus he got stuck with the tambourine. Adrian is a keyboard player as well as a sorcerer, gifted with immense power and cursed with a terrible narcolepsy that knocks him out when the stress gets too high. Twitch on the drums is a shapechanging fairy, cast out of the Mirror Queendom for a prank that went wonderfully right and offended the honor of one of Hell’s dignitaries. And Mike, bass player and former gangbanger, carries the ghost of his own dead brother around with him as a curse he just can’t shake.

Everyone has something, someone, somewhere else that they’d rather be. For four high-school seniors, their goals of perfection are just as different as the paths they take to get there. Cara’s parents’ unrealistic expectations have already sent her twin brother Conner spiraling toward suicide. For her, perfect means rejecting their ideals to take a chance on a new kind of love. Kendra covets the perfect face and body—no matter what surgeries and drugs she needs to get there. To score his perfect home run—on the field and off—Sean will sacrifice more than he can ever win back. And Andre realizes that to follow his heart and achieve his perfect performance, he’ll be living a life his ancestors would never have understood. Everyone wants to be perfect, but when perfection loses its meaning, how far will you go? What would you give up to be perfect? A riveting and startling companion to the bestselling Impulse, Ellen Hopkins’s Perfect exposes the harsh truths about what it takes to grow up and grow into our own skins, our own selves. ***Listen to the attached videos to hear the characters read an audio version of "Perfect", voiced by various actors.***
