Trebizon is a series of school story novels by Anne Digby set in a fictional school of that name. The fourteen novels were published between 1978 and 1994 and the first ten books were reprinted in 2016 and 2017.[1] Like Enid Blyton's earlier creation, Malory Towers, Trebizon is in Cornwall.
The novels follow the protagonist Rebecca Mason from when she joins the school in the second form through to the end of her fifth year. A theme throughout the series is Rebecca's talent for tennis. Other characters include Rebecca's two best friends, Tish Anderson and Susan Murdoch, and her other friend Robbie Anderson.
The Encyclopaedia of Girls' School Stories describes the books as "extremely popular", "modern" but in the tradition of girls' school stories and as selling well.[1] The Encyclopaedia notes that Trebizon is the longest school story series published since the 1960s.[1]
The series has been reprinted by Egmont Books, with illustrations by Lucy Truman.[1] The books have been translated into several languages, including Japanese.[1]
