Produktbeschreibung

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? A Montaigne Medal finalist for most thought-provoking book. "This holds the beauty and wonder of some of my favorite classics, such as The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe, and The Lord of the Rings." "The Sword in the Stone meets The Lies of Locke Lamora." "Everything a great story should have." "A fantastic ode to reading."
