Meg Cabot is a high profile author whose books have gone on to become movies and television shows. The reader will just have to wait for the continuation in AVALON HIGH CORONATION VOL. Not even the original story reveals how all the characters turn out. Cabot leaves the reader wanting to learn what comes next.

The details were amazing, and the story unfolded quickly and smoothly. The pictures were very vibrant, even in black and white. I was instantly drawn to Elle and her adventures. Having read AVALON HIGH, I must admit I enjoyed THE MERLIN PROPHECY more than I expected to. This is my first foray into this book style. No pressure, right? And to make matters worse, Will's brother, Marco, previously thought to be locked safely in a mental institution, is now out, and no one may be safe. If he doesn't accept that he is the reincarnated King, the Age of Enlightenment can not happen, and the world will be thrust into darkness. Elle has to try to convince Will that he is King Arthur before the Homecoming dance. But the drawings reveal the story beautifully. Of course, many of the details are left out. What takes 300 pages to be told in the original young adult story is told in just over 100 pages via the comic version. The pieces all seem to fit together perfectly. And Elle, she doesn't know what to believe. Elle's parents totally believe the story. Apparently Elle is the Lady of the Lake and the football star, Will Wagner, is Arthur reincarnated. Morton, explains it as the return of King Arthur and the Age of Enlightenment. Almost immediately weird things start to happen.

Readers do not have to have read AVALON HIGH to follow this new version of the story.Įlle Harrison has just moved to Annapolis with her history buff parents. Cabot retells AVALON HIGH in a comic/manga style. Fans of Meg Cabot are treated to a change in style by the author.
