Book Review of Avalon High

Avalon High
Avalon High
Author: Meg Cabot
Genres: Children's Books, Teen & Young Adult
Book Type: Hardcover
Helpful Score: 3


The book is a bit slow moving on the Arthur legend, but towards the middle it starts to pick up. If you don't know much about King Arthur, don't worry you'll be fine, as this book tweaks the legend a bit, as things do not go according to plan.

But basically this book focuses on what the Order of the Bear believe, that Arthur will come back one day to save the world fraom darkness. But apparently Arthur has been coming back every year, he just keeps getting killed (bummer huh?). Ellie gets wrapped up in it all and has to find a way to either change things for the better or get it all back to the way it should be.

A very interesting read. And a good read for the summer as this book focuses on floating in your pool (for the first chapter Ellie talks about how she loves to float in her pool)
