This is a spellbinding, action-packed book covering three exciting episodes of the hit TV show! The powerful enchantress Morgause arrives in Camelot, set on destroying the bond between Uther and his son. She tells Arthur the tragic tale behind his mother's death, but against his better judgement, Merlin decides to deny her story, thwarting her plans and preventing a fierce civil war — for now. But Morgause is not so easily defeated. She revives the seven deadly Knights of Medhir, once-powerful warriors enchanted by an evil magic. Arthur and Merlin ride out to face the Knights, and barely escape with their lives. Returning to Camelot, they find everyone in a deep, impenetrable sleep — everyone but Morgana. She's terrified and confused, but Merlin is suspicious. Desperate for a cure, Merlin is forced to beg for the Great Dragon's help, but it comes at a price: the Dragon demands his freedom. Now Morgana has vanished and the Dragon is free to unleash a vicious attack on Camelot. Merlin is gripped with guilt. But Gaius reveals that one man may be able to help — the last Dragonlord, who hasn't been seen for many years. Arthur and Merlin set out to find him, and Merlin is about to make a shocking discovery about the mysterious Balinor — one which will lead him into battle against the Dragon himself.
