The Disney Descendants School of Secrets books put individual characters from the Descendants franchise at the center of their own adventures. Jessica Brody wrote five entries between 2016 and 2017, each named for its protagonist: CJ, Freddie, Ally, Lonnie, and Carlos. The books give younger readers standalone stories within the familiar Descendants setting.
CJ’s Treasure Chase kicks things off with Captain Hook’s daughter on a treasure hunt, while Freddie’s Shadow Cards brings a supernatural twist through Facilier’s daughter. Later entries let Lonnie test her warrior skills and Carlos go on a scavenger hunt around Auradon Prep. Each book can be read on its own, though fans who read all five will catch references between stories.
Brody has also written other Descendants tie-in novels outside this sub-series. The School of Secrets books are shorter and aimed at younger readers within the Descendants audience, making them a quick read for kids who enjoyed the Disney Channel films.
