description: I loved everything about this book.--Rick Riordan, New York Times #1 best-selling author of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series \n12-year-old Jax Freeman discovers a secret world where a diverse group of students with unique talents wield magic by summoning the power of their ancestors \n \nThis unique magic-school fantasy series debut from the award-winning author of the Tristan Strong trilogy mixes Black history and thrilling adventure for young readers! \n \nOn his twelfth birthday, Jackson Jax Freeman arrives at Chicago's Union Station alone, carrying nothing but the baggage of a scandal back in Raleigh. He's been sent away from home to live with relatives he barely knows. But even worse are the strangers who accost him at the train station, including a food vendor who throws dust in his face and a conductor who tries to steal his skin. \n \nAt his new school, Jax is assigned to a special class for summoners, even though he has no idea what those are . . . until he accidentally unleashes an angry spirit on school grounds. Soon Jax is embroiled in all kinds of trouble, from the disappearance of a new friend to full-out war between summoning families. \n \nWhen Jax learns that he isn't the first Freeman to be blamed for a tragedy he didn't create, he resolves to clear his own name and that of his great-grandfather, who was a porter back in the 1920's. By following clues, Jax and his schoolmates unlock the secrets of a powerful Praise House, evade vengeful ghosts, and discover that Jax may just be the most talented summoner of all. \n \nWhat do you get when you combine Kwame Mbalia's incredible imagination and world-building talent with trains, history, and ghosts? Nothing less than middle grade magic!\n
