Description
A paperback shrink-wrapped collection of all five books in the Latinx mythology-inspired Charlie Hernandez series, perfect for fans of Rick Riordan and The Storm Runner!
Thanks to his abuela's stories, Charlie Hernandez possesses an almost encyclopedic knowledge of the mythological monsters that haunt Latinx folklore. He always assumed they were just fiction, but shortly after his parents disappear, he begins to experience strange bodily manifestations-including wings and horns-which are all too similar to his favorite legend of the Morphling.
The next thing he knows, Charlie finds himself swept up in a millennia-old war between La Liga, a secret society of legendary beings sworn to protect the Land of the Living, and La Mano Peluda (a.k.a. the Hairy Hand), a cabal of evil sombras determined to rule mankind. With the help of his lifelong crush, Violet Rey, and his grandmother's stories to guide him, Charlie must embrace his destiny as the fifth and final morphling in a quest that will take him throughout the Spanish- and Portuguese-speaking world. Because if he doesn't, it's only a matter of time before the Land of the Living is overrun by the dead.
This action-packed shrink-wrapped paperback collection includes:
Charlie Hernandez & the League of Shadows
Charlie Hernandez & the Castle of Bones
Charlie Hernandez & the Golden Dooms
Charlie Hernandez & the Phantom of Time
Charlie Hernandez & the Hand of Darkness
