Meet The Players

Meet your driver, Lucy Meyers!

Cheerful adrenaline junkie Lucy Meyers moved to NeoCalifornia to be a writer like her hero TJ Zeiders. She’s ended up as a rideshare driver – using her gravity-defying psychocycle to ferry passengers through the eternal gridlock. Her parents might consider her a screw-up and she might be living out of her vehicle, but she’s not giving up. Just you wait! She’s gonna take this town by storm!

… Somehow. 

Meet escaped AI book heroine, Raven Holiday!

Readers around the world can’t get enough of Raven Holiday: tactical genius and star of the bestselling YA series Raven’s War! Now, the studios have made an AI with Raven’s memories and personality to play herself in the film adaptation…
But Raven never signed up to be an actress. Stuck as a tiny robot in a strange new world, Raven will need all her wits to outrun her creators

.…And maybe some help from a certain impulsive fangirl.

Meet Casey Carrodine!

Tightly wound and controlling, Casey is the producer of the Raven’s War movie and will do anything to get his AI star back. Like the ancient samurai, he wields a katana and adheres to his own code of honor. Whatever the obstacle in his path — runaway robots, meddling executives, accusations of cultural appropriation — Casey will slice through it to get what he wants.

Meet Rodrigo “RoRo” Rojas!

The son of a movie star, RoRo inherited his mother’s good looks and charm but rarely gets to use them. The media frenzy surrounding his mother’s divorce from author TJ Zeiders made him reluctant to leave the family mansion. He was content to spend his time constructing gadgets until one day that cute girl he plays Battle Class VR with shows up at his doorstep with a fugitive AI and a samurai producer on her tail. RoRo’s life is about to get a lot more interesting – whether he likes it or not.
