Born the bastard son of a Welsh princess, Myridden Emrys -- or as he
would later be known, Merlin -- leads a perilous childhood, haunted by
portents and visions. But destiny has great plans for this no-man's-son,
taking him from prophesying before the High King Vortigern to the
crowning of Uther Pendragon . . . and the conception of Arthur -- king
for once and always.
