Lords of Badassery

A mysterious cartridge. A secret road trip. Can a gang of gamer teens solve a decades-old mystery before it’s game over?

Caught between his divorced parents and friendless except for Saffron, the girl he pines over, LeRoy Jupiter Jenkins resigns his victories to the let’s play videos on his retrogaming YouTube channel. But when he stumbles across a game cartridge that shouldn’t exist, Saffron drags him on an unauthorized side quest across the country to solve the mystery of its existence. 

They uncover a 30-year-old tournament from the greatest video game company that history forgot, along with glittering prizes that have yet to be claimed. Unfortunately for LeRoy and Saffron, a menacing bounty hunter has his eyes set on those same long-lost treasures, and he’s not about to let a couple of meddling kids get in his way.

Livestreamed and low on time, can LeRoy get the girl, collect the treasure, and avoid the pit of poisonous bees?*

*Disclaimer: This book does not contain a pit, nor does it contain a single bee of any persuasion, toxic or otherwise. Sometimes you get carried away, y’know?
