AVALON HIGH

As a new student, Elaine stumbles onto an impossible truth: some of her classmates are reincarnations of people from Arthurian legend. Elaine falls in love with Will, president of the student council and a quarterback. He chooses to use his middle name rather than his first, Arthur. Elaine is determined to save him from destruction in this suspenseful and fantastic story. Debra Wiseman's portrayal of Elaine as she works through her suspicions helps achieve the story's believability. Her depictions of other key characters further enrich the story, and her poetic pacing of passages from THE LADY OF SHALOTT at the opening of each chapter has just the right touch.
