The Soccer Field Is Empty / Ancient Prejudice

By Mark Roeder

Mark and Taylor are both 16 years old. They're into soccer. And each other.

But then "Ancient Prejudices" threaten their love...

Inspired by Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet," this "gay" version gave rise to Mark's entire Gay Youth Chronicles series.


"The Soccer Field is Empty" is an "expanded" version of Mark's first self-published novel, "Ancient Prejudice."



It is the second book he suggests reading in the series he calls: THE GAY YOUTH CHRONICLES. Most of the novels in the series take place in small-town Verona, Indiana, over a few decades and some characters overlap from one book to another.
