About the Scott Pilgrim Series

Reading age: 13+ years

This series should be read in order.

Scott Pilgrim is just your average 23-year-old living in Canada. He hangs out with his high-school girlfriend, Knives, and plays in the band Sex Bob-Omb with his friends. Everything's perfect for Scott . . . until the day he sees Ramona Flowers delivering packages for Amazon. Scott dumps Knives to be with Ramona, but then learns about Ramona's exes — evil exes, that is. Ramona's seven evil exes must be defeated by Scott so he can stay with Ramona.

Soon, Scott is fighting twins, vegan power, and ninjas; eventually, even Knives Chau and her dad put themselves into the ring with Scott. Will Scott defeat all the exes or will he lose Ramona forever? Who is the Gideon that Ramona keeps referring to? And will Scott's band ever get to play a real show?
