#olsstaffpick The Rat Queens are a tough, insouciant gang of ne’er-do-well girls (they’re certainly not ladies) who love a good bar brawl. When they are assigned a mission as punishment for their latest recklessness and it turns out to be a trap, they come back to figure out who has it in for them. And if they have to beat up a few people and monsters to do it, then that's just fine by them. (Summary by Snow Wildsmith of Booklist) This is definitely not one for the kids!
