Shalott

Five teenagers set out into the unknown to change the legend of Camelot. Instead, they find they are rewriting their own lives and destiny.

Callie has the strong sense that her future is somehow linked to Guinevere, and that her quest is not yet over. But their final meeting puts her life in danger and her future happiness at stake. Cast adrift from all she knows, Callie must first find a way to save herself before she can save her sister and friends. But can she trust the treacherous Morgan le Fay to help her? As past and present collide, Callie's true quest becomes clear - but will she have the courage to see it through?

'In this extraordinary trilogy Felicity Pulman shows both her understanding of the Arthurian legend, of the Shalott story, and a rich and imaginative capacity to expand and explore its deep meanings for today's teenagers. This is an unsettling, unusual, intriguing and moving series, rich in character, action and mystery, full of the atmosphere of Arthurian legend, yet without falling into the trap of mere retelling.' - Sophie Masson
