Great series In the third part of the Merlin trilogy, Arthur is now High King and Merlin can withdraw to the background as an advisor. An enjoyable book but I think I enjoyed the first two, The Crystal Cave and The Hollow Hills, more. As with The Hollow Hills, it didn't quite live up to the first volume for me. Once Arthur enters the picture, there is an element of "I've read this story 100 times." Taken as a whole, I think the trilogy is just a decent telling of the Arthurian saga, whereas the first book alone is an extremely good telling of Merlin's story. Mary Stewart's books will always be my view of Merlin. Stewart's well-written story of Merlin. A classic. Read it! no reviews | add a review
