"Tristan Strong has been traumatized. He's back in Alabama after saving Alke -- a world inhabited by African American folktale heroes and West African gods -- from iron monsters unleashed by an ancient evil. Horrific scenes of danger and destruction haunt both his dreams and his waking hours. One day, when he's supposed to be concentrating on a boxing match in his grandparents' barn, Tristan's nightmares come to life: Spirits appear to warn him that the Shamble Man is coming to the Strong family farm. Who is the Shamble Man, and what does he want? Tristan finds out soon enough when the fearsome creature wreaks havoc on the farm and steals his beloved grandmother. To rescue Nana, Tristan must return to Alke and track down her abductor. But how is Tristan supposed to succeed when the only god he can summon to his side is Anansi the trickster, who is imprisoned inside a cell phone? To make matters worse, ever since Nana was taken, Tristan's powers as the Anansesem, the carrier and spreader of stories, seem to have disappeared along with her. New allies emerge from unexpected places to help Tristan do what Strongs do best: get back up. But it still may not be enough to keep everything from unraveling"--,Provided by publisher.
