| Publisher Description: One of the most inventive and charming retellings of the Arthurian legend, The Candle in the Wind and The Book of Merlyn make up the final part of The Once and Future King. In these last two books, the aging king faces the greatest challenge of his reign when his own son threatens to overthrow him and destroy everything he has worked for. In The Book of Merlyn, Arthur's tutor Merlyn reappears, and the ancient magician teaches him that there is still hope--even in the face of apparent ruin. |
