In the gritty world of the New Jersey heavy metal scene, Bloodhook is just one of many bands trying to chase the dream. Grinding all the small gigs over the tri-state area once they finally got their licenses, and endless nights of packing and unpacking their rental "tour bus" make those dreams feel out of reach until an overnight viral success lands them a real opportunity with a record label.
Jacob isn't a musician, but he's Bloodhook's manager, merch guy, booking agent, social media manager, and best friend who originally joined with an ulterior motive. Ten years ago he fell in love at first sight with The Bassist herself: Leona. She's a badass and talented tomboy with a love for beer, pizza, and slapping the $#!+ out of her beloved bass. Though he's a clueless outsider, he quickly learns the brutal reality of chasing a dream while watching her shine on the stage.
Told as an illustrated light novel, Volume One of the Bloodhook Series, is where friendship, ambition, and love are only a fraction of the struggles Jacob and the band will face on the road to superstardom.
