Charlie Hernández & the Castle of Bones

Charlie Hernández & the Castle of Bones

Inspired by Hispanic folklore, legends, and myths from the Iberian Peninsula and Central and South America, this bold sequel to Charlie HernÃ¡ndez & the League of Shadows, which Booklist called â€œa perfect pick for kids who love Rick Riordanâ€ in a starred review, follows Charlie as he continues on his quest to embrace his morphling identity.

Charlie Hernandez still likes to think of himself as a normal kid. But whatâ€™s normal about being a demon-slaying preteen with an encyclopedic knowledge of Hispanic and Latino mythology who can partially manifest nearly any animal trait found in nature? Well, not much. But, Charlie believes he can get used to this new â€œnormal,â€ because being able to sprout wings or morph fins is pretty cool.

But there is a downside: it means having to constantly watch his back for La Mano Peludaâ€™s sinister schemes. And when the leader of La Liga, the Witch Queen Jo herself, is suddenly kidnapped, Charlieâ€™s sure theyâ€™re at it again.

Determined to save the queen and keep La Ligaâ€™s alliances intact, Charlie and his good friend Violet Rey embark on a perilous journey to track down her captors. As Charlie and Violet are drawn deeper into a world of monstruos and magia they are soon left with more questions than answersâ€”like, why do they keep hearing rumors of dead men walking, and why is Charlie suddenly having visions of an ancient evil: a necromancer priest whoâ€™s been dead for more than five centuries?

Charlieâ€™s abuela once told him that when dead men walk, the living run in fear. And Charlieâ€™s about to learn the truth of thatâ€”the hard way.
