Summary

Julie and the Phantoms' adventures continue in this original novel based on the hit Netflix show from Descendants director Kenny Ortega！
Julie Molina is about to make it big with her band， Julie and the Phantoms。 There's only one catch: All her bandmates are ghosts。

Back in the 1990s， Luke， Reggie， and Alex were on the cusp of rock stardom with their band， Sunset Curve， before an unfortunate encounter with Los Angeles street food brought their rock band dreams—and lives—to an end。 Now， with Julie as their lead singer， the guys have a second chance at stardom。

But being bandmates—and maybe more than bandmates？—is hard enough as it is！ Can Julie， Luke， Reggie， and Alex keep playing gigs and growing their fan base without anyone figuring out their big secret？

This exclusive Julie and the Phantoms story is told in alternating points of view and comes with a full-color pull-out locker poster！
