Knights Of The Lunch Table #1: The Dodgeball Chronicles (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
The local library has a growing collection of graphic novels in the kids book section (essentially comic books in a soft cover book package) While too many of them are anime, there are a few fun reads there. This is the tale of King Arthur with a sort of junior high twist to it. Artie King is a new student at school. Instead of pulling the stone from Excalibur, Artie King opens up a magical locker that nobody else has been able to open. The elements of the original story are all here in some form, Merlin is now Artie's science teacher. The villains are junior high bullies and the principal, Miss Dagger. It was a fun little book that took the stories to a different place, not just a rehash in a modern form. Like most comic books, it can be read in one or two short sittings. I imagine this is what kids read to have to read but don't want to read. (I can't really relate to those kinds of people, honestly) And if the kid doesn't know King Arthur, so much would be wasted on him.So while I'm a standard book kind of guy, I think alot of young and "have to"-readers would appreciate this for the low commitment, fun art, but nice story. there is a main chariter artie and the hord are the two mane charitors the main part of the book is that ther is this doge ball game and who ever wins rulls the schol i wist i can tell you but to find out you have to read it sorry i liked the book becese artie lid and said he was a donge ball tapuan at this old school there was this looker he got and peopple said it is curst and it has not been opened for years so he want to this looker and it opened right away
