Description
Knights wield words as weapons, librarians are wizards, and books can change the future!
When her parents are condemned to death by Morgan Fay for the crime of reading, Arti Penderhagen becomes a fugitive. Hunted by Mordred, the sadistic police captain who recites poetry to enhance his physical strength, Arti escapes to the Isle of Avalon, a sanctuary for outlaws. There she meets an old librarian named Merl who tells her about the Grail Tome, an ancient book in Morgan Fay's possession that can alter the course of history. Can Arti steal the book in time to save her family?

This book is pretty unique. It takes Arthurian legend and twists it. I really enjoyed this book. It's imaginative, creative, and fun. The characters are amazingly written. This book is a fresh, creative read.
Kenna-Lee F, Reviewer
This book had all of the things an Arthurian wizard would want to read - magic, heroes we can relate to, adventure, and classic epic story telling. It was a little slow to get into at first, but once I dove in it was hard to put down. The real world adaptations (Camel Lot vs Camelot) were a unique touch and brought the story telling to a new level. I am a sucker for retellings, and this one goes to the top of the list!
