From PW:
Bloodlines will be a spin-off ofVA, moving the previously tertiary character Sydney, a human alchemist, from the sidelines to the forefront. It will also be set in a sunny Californian high school instead of that rigid, preppy-bloodsucker academy, which I imagine will be like transferring from the Undead Poets Society to Bayside High.Wow! I know everyone will be McBegging for an advanced copy of this! I'm glad it looks nothing like her VA series. August is a long way away...
