This New York Times bestselling hit from Meg Cabot mixes the wit of the Princess Diaries with a supernatural twist on the Arthurian legend.

Ellie’s thrilled to meet Will, the star football player whose popularity at her new school is almost legendary. Yet as she gets to know Will better, Ellie starts to uncover some strange things about him. And the school. And even herself. Ellie doesn’t think much of déjà vu, but she just can’t shake the haunting feeling that, somehow, this has all happened before…

A long-ago legend comes to new life in this tale of a love triangle, a medieval sword, and a totally awesome pool raft in this stand-alone novel from the New York Times bestselling author of The Princess Diaries.

Editorial Reviews

From the Back Cover

Avalon High, I was starting to think, might not be so bad after all.

Maybe it's not where Ellie wants to be, but if you have to start at a new school, Avalon High is typical enough: There's Lance, the jock. Jennifer, the cheerleader. And Will, senior class president, quarterback, and all-around good guy.

But not everyone at Avalon High is who they appear to be . . . not even, as Ellie is about to discover, herself. As a bizarre drama begins to unfold, Ellie has to wonder, what part does she play in all this? Do the coincidences she's piecing together really mean—as in King Arthur's court—that tragedy is fast approaching for her new friends?

Ellie doesn't know if she can do anything to stop the coming trouble. But somehow, she knows she has to try.

I am looking forward to reading this, but it was delivered in rough shape. I didn't want to return it because I have been waiting for it for a while, and I have library repair materials that I can use to fix it. . . .but I think that someone in the warehouse needs to be careful. I didn't slice the cover when I opened the box. . . .this book was paced under another item that I bought. It's not much fun getting a damaged item!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome!!
Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2010

I don't usually do reviews but this book was awesome. I couldn't put it down. I was literally up until 4am reading it even though I had to be at work at 9am. I love the plot and how the author relates it back to the historical Arthurian figures but she also throws some twist in there that make it modern. I would love to see what she could do with Greco-roman mythology. But back to my point. Not only was the plot awesome but the writing was at the same level. I loved Ellie's sarcasm and how the character didn't completely ignore the coincides within the plot but didn't blindly follow along either. It was a great balance and a great book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Legends meet modern day high school
Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2022

I am so similar to Ellie, which is why I think that I loved this book so much when I first read it, and still love it years later. Meg does an absolutely amazing job tying the Arthurian legend elements in and introducing them, keeping all the legends bits from overwhelming the story itself. Tiny spoiler, you will want to slap Mr. Morton and wish that the brotherhood put someone else in charge.

4.0 out of 5 stars Fun and refreshing
Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2006

Elaine Harrison looks forward to the chance to forge a new identity when she tranfers high schools during her medievalist-parents' sabbatical. Little does she know that she will be returning to an old identity, as Elaine the Lily Maid of Astolat, when she meets up with a cast of Arthurian figures she comes to suspect are reincarnated from 5th-century Britain: Merlin has become a busybody teacher Mr. Morton, Lancelot the dashing blonde football player Lance, Guinevere his best friend's sweetheart, and so on. Can such a transformation be true? Elaine's musings are expressed with characteristic high school skepticism. Not.

A charming and reasonably well researched Arthurian novel for adolescents, "Avalon High" shows us what happens when King Arthur goes to high school. Recommended both for its engaging and readable adolescent narrator and for the clever, surprising, and upbeat conclusion.

Avalon high was awesome! Will, (insert girly sigh here), was positively dreamy;) I have seen Avalon High the movie many times and the book, though different from the feature, is just as interesting and captivating as the movie. Meg Cabot illustrates a unique story sure to please even the harshest critics and entertain the most restless readers, regardless of their lack of insight into medieval times or the knights of the round table. Whatever your previous knowledge of King Arthur may be, (for me that would be nothing), Avalon high is a book that will steal your breath away...... and maybe even your heart, too<3

Pardon, je faire cette commantaire en Angais:

Some time ago, I saw the movie with this title in a friends movies marathon, and because I love it so much, I put the title down on a list of books to read in the future... Although I liked the book amazing enough In prefer the artistic liberty used in the movie itself, where some things were change...
