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.

The best Merlin book there is, and matched with historical thinking of those eras, rings more true than most of the tales. Nice link to history and politics.
This is a fascinating tale of Merlin. It is well-written in the first person. #SummerReading
