Bloomsbury presents The Vanquishers: Secret of the Reaping by Kalynn Bayron, read by Ecstasia Sanders.

The second book in the bitingly brilliant and fangtastically feisty middle-grade series THE VANQUISHERS by New York Times bestselling author Kalynn Bayron. Fans of The Breakfast Club Adventures, Goosebumps and Stranger Things will devour this fun, thrilling and heartfelt vampire adventure.

The Vanquishers are back, this time with new junior members, and are ready to defend their town against the undead!

Malika 'Boog' Wilson and her best friends Cedrick, Jules, and Aaron – aka the Squad – always stick together. Now that vampires have returned, they’ll need to take their Vanquisher lessons more seriously than ever. But who is behind this return of the undead?

When strange disappearances begin across their community and the Department of Vampire Affairs warns Boog’s mum to keep quiet about vampires returning, it looks like uncovering the truth won't be so easy.

The Squad is eager to take on the undead, but will they be able to convince their parents they are ready to fight alongside the Vanquishers?

Critic reviews

A sharp vampire tale full of bite, heart, and humour that’s sure to please any ‘thirsty’ reader. The undead don’t stand a chance with Malika ‘Boog’ Wilson and her friends on the case
A heart-pounding and hilarious reimagining of classic vampire mythology. Boog and her friends will capture your heart in an instant. You’ll cry, laugh, and ache in this stunning, unique adventure. I’m ready to become a Vanquisher!
Combining mythology and science to produce a fresh take on modern vampire lore, Bayron erects a fantastical San Antonio that is as chock-full of personality as each of the story’s characters. Pithy dialogue and sensational description make this a speedy, eerie read
This warm, witty friendship story with a healthy dose of vampire adventure is a page-turning read … A lively, appealing addition to the genre
Mesmerising and beautiful
Wholly original and captivating

I listened to this whilst at work and I was incapsulated from the first book and even more with the second! It was a quick read and it slightly gives buffy the vampire slayer 👀 and loved it!

Holy goosebumps
