Details
The Witch, the Sword, and the Cursed Knights follows twelve-year-old Ellie, a witch in a society that despises her kind. Desperate to prove her worth, she applies to the prestigious Fairy Godmother Academy, hoping for a chance at societal acceptance. However, her plans are derailed when she receives a draft letter to serve as a knight of King Arthur's legendary Round Table. To escape this fate, she must undertake an impossible task—save a lost cause.
Enter Caedmon, a boy from Wisconsin reeling from the loss of his best friend. Initially dismissing the draft as absurd, Caedmon soon learns that ancient magic has foretold the death of his family unless he joins the knights. At Camelot, he discovers a dark curse that has drained the knights' power, setting him and Ellie on a dangerous path to break the curse.
Together, Ellie and Caedmon must pass a series of life-threatening trials and re-forge the broken Excalibur. With their world at stake, Ellie must embrace her witch magic, and Caedmon must rise to become the knight he's destined to be. Failure means the fall of Camelot and the rise of a darkness that once destroyed King Arthur's kingdom.
