Riassunto

First novel in THE MERLIN CODEX from Britain's most critically respected writer of the fantastic In the centuries before he will become involved with Arthur, Merlin is immortal, almost young. He adventures across the world, and across unknown worlds. He becomes the friend of Jason, a Greek prince who seeks the Golden Fleece, and is involved with his enchantress wife, Medea. Through Greece, Finland, and other lands - and for the first time to England - the skein of Merlin's tale leads to heroism, treachery and magic.
