No young man, no matter how great, can know his destiny.
The mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began. A fantastical realm of legendary beasts and mysterious peoples. A dangerous world in which magic has been banned by the ruthless tyrant, Uther Pendragon. When Merlin, a young man gifted with extraordinary magical powers, arrives in the kingdom he quickly makes enemies including the heir to Uther's crown, the headstrong Prince Arthur. But guided by Uther's wise physician, Gaius, Merlin is soon using his talent not just to survive but also to unlock Camelot's mystical secrets. As he does so he discovers that his destiny and that of Arthur, the kingdom's young leader-in-waiting, are inextricably linked.
