Heroes Welcome


The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp by Richard Yancey

Alfred Kropp is an unwilling and unlikely hero. Overweight and unpopular, he struggles through his school days until his uncle involves him in the theft of King Arthur’s legendary sword Excaliber. His uncle is killed, and the theft starts an incredible battle between rival groups of modern-day nights. There are knightly battles, a beautiful girl, suspense, hot cars and adventure as Alfred saves the world.


Want to read about the original knights of the round table? Try The Once and Future King by T.H. White for adventure, magic, knights and beautiful maidens. This classic recounts the story of King Arthur from his birth until the end of his reign as king of England. You’ve heard of King Arthur, Queen Guinevere, Merlin and Lancelot. Here’s their story.
