Editorial Review
Descendants - School Library Journal
Disney’s “Descendants,” a series of stories involving the children of our most famous fairy tale characters, has already made waves with four movies, several shows, and a few popular novels. These new manga, covering four stories over seven volumes, bring new depth to the now familiar characters. “Rotten To The Core” introduces main characters Mal, Maleficent’s daughter; Evie, daughter of the Evil Queen; Jay, son of Jafar; and Carlos, son of Cruella; and follows their enrollment in Auradon Prep School. Evie’s Wicked Runway tells of a fashion contest between school rivals and the ultimate triumph of teamwork. Both Mal’s New Challenge and Dizzy’s New Fortune are excellent examples of friendship, triumph, and overcoming prejudices. All are excellent additions to any fan of the series, or curious newcomers.VERDICT The beloved “Descendants” series expands into the world of manga, bringing these delightful stories to a new audience, reminding readers that where you come from does not dictate who you are.
