About this ebook

Julie and the Phantoms' adventures continue in this original novel based on the hit Netflix show from Descendants director Kenny Ortega!

Julie Molina and her band, Julie and the Phantoms, play their dream gig at the Orpheum. It was supposed to be Luke, Reggie, and Alex's unfinished business as ghosts, so they could cross over. But they didn't. And now, suddenly, Julie can feel them.

Whatever happens next, Julie and the guys know they've just had one of the best days of their (after)lives. And it gets Luke and Julie thinking about their last perfect days...

For Luke, it was the day he died -- the day Sunset Curve was supposed to play the Orpheum. For Julie, it was the day before she found out her mom was sick -- the last normal day before her life changed forever.

This exclusive Julie and the Phantoms story is told in flashbacks and alternating points of view!

Ratings and reviews

Helping subside the ache of unfulfilled promises from netflix. I really wish there was one more chapter of luke and Julie's exchange at the end from Luke's POV and have julie say she liked him too or "she didn't have to say it, I felt it in our music and saw it in her eyes" or something while in his POV. Then it would've been perfect 👌

I give this five stars already. Even though Its not available I just know it's gonna be rad. 😄

can only read the first two chapters and keeps telling me it is a sample but I purchased the book.
