NOVEDADES

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?
