Description: Dust jacket by Lawrence Ratzkin. This was the first of Mary Stewart's series of novels about the Arthurian saga (to be followed by The Hollow Hills, The Last Enchantment, The Wicked Day, and The Prince and the Pilgrim.) ''A spell-binding novel that catapults the reader into fifth century Britain -- a land uncertainly emerging from Roman rule and divided by conflicting loyalties, a land riddled with rumors both real and planted, and spear-alert with superstitious fear. Into this strange world was born Merlin, bastard son of Niniane, daughter of the King of South Wales and an unknown father. The novel opens in Wales when Merlin is seven, and closes in Cornwall with the begetting of Arthur.'' Rear gutter code ''07 M'' indicates a printing date of February, 1971.
