Jax Freeman and the Tournament of Spirits - Hardcover
by Kwame Mbalia (Author)
All Aboard! The sequel to Jax Freeman and the Phantom Shriek has pulled into the station!
From the award-winning author of the best-selling Tristan Strong trilogy comes a magical series about a special boy who is granted summoning powers from his ancestors. Seventh grader Jackson "Jax" Freeman recently learned two important facts: one, he's a summoner--someone who can call on the magical powers of his ancestors to help him do amazing things--and two, he isn't the only person with this ability. After much training, Jax and four of his summoner classmates from DuSable Middle school in Chicago are thrust into a competition called the Tournament of Spirits where they'll face the most skilled summoners from around the world. But while everyone is focused on winning, Jax is given a special side quest by the elders of the four magical families: he has to spy on each of the competitors--including his own teammates--in order to uncover who is releasing endangered, and very dangerous, cryptids into the arena. Can Jax take the top spot in the tournament and save himself and his friends from a mysterious foe? Kwame Mbalia's incredible imagination and world-building talents are on full display in this thrilling adventure that's packed with magic, friendship, non-stop action, and a lot of heart.Kwame Mbalia (he/him) is a #1 New York Times best-selling author and the publisher of Freedom Fire, an imprint of Disney Hyperion devoted to stories about the Black diaspora by Black creators.
