Once & Future
Autor Cori McCarthy, Amy Rose Capetta Lauren Fortgangen CD-Audio – 25 mar 2019
King
Arthur
as
you've
never
imagined!
This
bold,
sizzling
YA
retells
the
popular
legend
with
the
Once
and
Future
King
as
a
teenage
girl
--
and
she
has
a
universe
to
save.
I've
been
chased
my
whole
life.
As
a
fugitive
refugee
in
the
territory
controlled
by
the
tyrannical
Mercer
corporation,
I've
always
had
to
hide
who
I
am.
Until
I
found
Excalibur.
Now
I'm
done
hiding.
My
name
is
Ari
Helix.
I
have
a
magic
sword,
a
cranky
wizard,
and
a
revolution
to
start.
When
Ari
crash-lands
on
Old
Earth
and
pulls
a
magic
sword
from
its
ancient
resting
place,
she
is
revealed
to
be
the
newest
reincarnation
of
King
Arthur.
Then
she
meets
Merlin,
who
has
aged
backward
over
the
centuries
into
a
teenager,
and
together
they
must
break
the
curse
that
keeps
Arthur
coming
back.
Their
quest?
Defeat
the
cruel,
oppressive
government
and
bring
peace
and
equality
to
all
humankind.
No
pressure.

with
heroic
flair,
humor,
and
