Other editions of book The Camelot Kids

What would you do if an odd girl in a cloak told you, "You know you're a descendant of King Arthur's knight, Lancelot, right?" You'd probably do the same thing 14-year-old New Yorker Simon Sharp does. Back away nice and slow. But Simon learns the truth when he's kidnapped by a drunk troll, rescued by a 7 foot man named Merlin, and thrown into training with 149 other heirs of the Knights of the Round Table. Can Simon survive a prophecy that predicts the world will be saved through its destruction? The Camelot Kids is about one boy's struggle to make it to tomorrow, in a world both real and fantastic. "Zackheim does an excellent job of twisting the story away from your expectations - and in places, even uses your expectations, both of the genre itself and the source material, against you." - Nicholas Pozo, Goodreads "Another great book by Ben Zackheim. This guy really knows how to make fun and compelling characters...You'll be hooked from the start!" - Dalia Hierro, Amazon
