Amazon readers love The Camelot Kids! "This is such an amazing reinvention of the Arthurian Legend and Camelot... I have been looking for a series that captivated me as much as the Harry Potter world did, and I think I have finally found it." Jaide76 "With strong male AND female characters (and the female characters valued by the males NOT for their physical attributes and vice versa), this book is really fun for a wide variety of ages and both genders. Themes of friendship, family, and self-discovery make this book poignant. And fast-paced action and intelligent humor make it tough to put down." HB Freer "I have a feeling this will be one of my favorite series. It mixes King Arthur with a dash of Harry Potter and Percy Jackson." G. Guerra 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 page one!" Dalia Hierro, Amazon"I am fascinated by this novel take on the Arthurian legend...The book has some qualities that I love in Robert Heinlein's 'Tunnel in the Sky'... The way Simon and his cohorts are developed as interesting characters in their own right, not at all patronized by the writer, who are embarked on a suspenseful adventure, is like the best of Heinlein's YA writing. And the illustrations! They're wonderful." - Craig
