Misfits of Avalon / McDonald, Kel

"Smart-mouthed, modern-day teens Morgan, Elsie, Kimber, and Rae couldn't be more different. That is, until a mysterious fairy sets them on a harrowing mission. Imbuing them with magical powers, the girls are tasked with capturing the sword Excalibur from King Arthur. But when they fail to retrieve it after a particular tense battle, the girls begin to question if their quest is a noble one... Often at odds--the foursome must band together, face their differences, and discover the true power that lies deep within each of them"--Amazon.com.

"Four modern-day misfit teens are reluctant recruits to save the mystical isle of Avalon. Magically empowered (and chained to the task) by a set of rings, and directed in their mission by a tight-lipped talking dog, they must stop the rise of King Arthur. But as they struggle to get used to their powers and each other, they're faced with an even greater challenge: the discovery that they may not be the good guys in this story. But does that really matter, anyway?"--Back cover.
