Druhý díl z trilogie o kouzelníku Merlinovi. Kouzelník Merlin sleduje Artušovo dětství a dospívání, dohlíží na jeho výchovu, ovlivňuje vzdělání. Sám v této době cestuje po soudobém známém světě a svým vnitřním zrakem sleduje bouřlivé události v Británii. Ve vhodné době se schází s Artušem, aby ho seznámil s nastávajícími úkoly a povinnostmi. Společně se účastní vyzvednutí slavného kouzelného meče a tím vlastně jsou položeny základy k Artušově vládě nad zemí. Než nakonec usedne Artuš na trůn, musí překonat řadu nebezpečných překážek, na které pouhá Merlinova kouzla nestačí.

Sequel to The crystal cave in the Merlin Trilogy.

With the great sword Caliburn in his hand and Merlin the enchanter at his side, Arthur comes out of hiding to claim the crown he was born to wear. Merlin, Arthur's protector, sees the glories and horrors that await the new king . . . and to save him Merlin musters all his power to weave one last enchantment. He is showing signs of age and he gradually realises he is losing his powers of prophecy and clairvoyance to a younger generation. But he is able to accept this because he knows that they will be at the service of his beloved monarch whose fabled victories, marriage and the building of Camelot shine through these pages.

The story follows Myridden Emrys, the illegitimate son of a Welsh princess, as he navigates a tumultuous childhood filled with ominous visions. His journey is marked by significant events, including prophesying for the High King Vortigern and witnessing the rise of Uther Pendragon, culminating in the birth of Arthur, the legendary king. This tale explores themes of destiny and identity as Merlin embraces his role in shaping the future of Britain.
