Synopsis
When James Potter uncovers a forgotten, dust-laden book hidden deep within Hogwarts’ Restricted Section, he never imagined it would be the legendary, long-lost journal of the Four Founders themselves.
Follow the adventures of Godric Gryffindor, Rowena Ravenclaw, Helga Hufflepuff, and Salazar Slytherin, brought together by fate, bounded by destiny. In a time long before Hogwarts rose from the misty Highlands, before the Four Founders etched their legacy into the annals of magical history, there was the magical realm of Avalon, where Elves, Dwarves, Orcs, Therianthropes and all manner of magical creatures and races thrive. Nestled among enchanted forests, towering peaks, and ancient ruins lies Excalibur Magical Academy, a bastion of learning where the gifted and ambitious gather to hone their craft. Their untold journey will test them against rival witches and wizards, confront them with the forces of darkness, and an ancient evil long thought vanquished. This is the story of friendship, sacrifice, and the legacy of the four who would one day build the greatest school of magic the world has ever known and change the wizarding world forever. Before they were The Founders, they were The Marauders.

I'm yet to read it but if it's a Harry Potter book, then I'm all in. See you in Hogwarts 🧙♂️. Probably think I will be in Slytherin 🐍. Let's goo😅🔥🔥🔥
If you grow up watching Harry Potter and interested in Hogwarts’ legacy, this is a must-read with a well-written plot and characters.
First of all, I read this because I had some free time. As for this novel, I'm not sure whether the author has already been rejected or not, but I do know it has minor issues—some sentences that didn’t quite fit at times. Still, it’s a great read. Now, who am I to judge? You might be wondering. Actually, I’m an offline author and also work on a very popular manga. If you don’t mind, I’d prefer to keep a low profile. I hope you’ll notice those lines as well.
I've always looked for an harry Potter fanfiction. I'm thrilled there's one😁. Already in my library 😁
The book is wonderful hope all of you enjoy reading it and please don't scroll pass this book.
Each character brings depth to the story, enhancing the overall experience. I highly recommend this read to anyone looking for a compelling tale that resonates with Harry Potter.
The cover already got my attention then reading just blew me away i like the way the story begins don't stop this author looking forward to more chapters, keep up the good work author
I just wish for more updates. 😭😭 I like the plot line, although us swordsman are the losers, hope to see more close to close fighters
Excalibur Magical Academy is so good! Full of adventure, magical creatures, friendships, and dark threats. If you're a Harry Potter fan, you’ve gotta read this!
This novel is amazing, the implementation of hogwarts definitely got my attention. Nice plot, i recommend this, good work author.
Who hasn't seen and been captivated by my Harry Potter series in their childhood, this novel has been a great read and gives me the nostalgic feeling of returning to my childhood! keep up the good work!
history, magic, castles, kingdoms ... hold me tight😳 Am about to faint. like just give us +++ chapters authors. or I'll make it up to your house door.
It's like Harry Potter meets Middle-earth, with Gryffindor as a sword-wielding Harry, Ravenclaw out-Hermione-ing Hermione, and Slytherin brooding harder than Snape. If this is how Hogwarts began, no wonder it’s a deathtrap!
OK my issue here is being unable to get into the story due to all the problems I see with the plot based from cannon. yes you can say AU, but when you change the source material past a point it becomes better to just write an original fiction. I was unable to get past chapter 2 due to all the unexplained changes. the biggest being Godric Griffindor riding the hogwarts express (basically) to a different magical school. firstly is that the magical community of Harry potter being unable to create even a mill 1k years into the future due to ease of magical solutions for all problems. Secondly the hogwarts express itself was Stolen not created by magicals. Third, the founders were the FIRST to make a magical school. it is the entire reason they were so celebrated, the magical school changed the way wizards lived world-wide. Hogwarts made the magical community into a community. without being the first to make a magical school I doubt that even students of hogwarts would care much about them, and most likely would have just thought the marauders book a stuffy biography. also from the HP books it seems the founders lives were well known; or at least an overview. also the sword of Griffindor which it seems in this work he already has, was commissioned from the goblins by godric himself. in short my only problem with this story and why I am not going to continue reading is because of the amount of plot changes and the speed they keep coming. Best way to do a FF IMO is keeping as much of the major history of the world the same while making minor tweaks.
Hey, everyone, author here. Just wanted to give you all a big thank you for your support and time. I appreciate every collection, gift and most of all, comments and reviews. As a writer, I live off reviews, as they fuel my passion. This story is a very old idea I've filed away a long time ago, what started out as practice for my own original novel, evolved into a fully fleshed out tale. This will be a long story filled with multiple arcs and plenty of characters. I hope you all will stick around for the long run. Happy reading, and to my fellow writers, happy writing.
