A quick-paced story follows Sierra Santiago as she learns about her ancestor's unique ability to channel spirits into different art forms such as song and paintings. With the help of her friends and a hot graffiti artist, Sierra finds out that she is connected to their fantastical powers and begins to unravel the mystery behind the zombie corpuscles that stalk her and find the reason behind her grandfather's psychological demise.

Character development (beyond Sierra) and solid plot progression are pushed aside for this unique offering that fans of Percy Jackson and Cassandra Claire will devour. Love the diversity that this brings to the fantasy world and the rich plot but I wanted more detail. However, this downfall for me is a great advantage for kids that want a quick, exciting read.
