Publisher's Synopsis
So begins the tale of the strange young boy, who, having washed up on the shores of ancient Wales, is determined to find his real home and his true name. One day he will become the greatest wizard of all time, but he knows nothing of this now.
Combining all the passion, power, and spiritual depth that are T. A. Barron's hallmarks, this book adds a thrilling new dimension to the legend of Merlin.
This is the first book in The Lost Years of Merlin epic. The fifth and final book, The Wings of Merlin is available in September from Penguin Putnam.
