Avalon High by Meg Cabot

Do you find the legend of King Arthur facinating? Would you believe he has been reincarnated and is living in Anapolis, Maryland and attends Avalon High School? Neither does Elaine, who has moved to Anapolis for the year with her parents who are Medieval scholars on sabbatical. When Elaine meets Will the most popular boy at Avalon High she finds out her English teacher, Mr. Morton, believes him to be the reincarnation of King Arthur. There are so many parallels from his life to King Arthur's. The question is how does Elaine fit in?

This is a fun story, very interesting. It moves along very quickly. I recommend this story for those of you who enjoy stories about King Arthur.

Happy Reading!
