Book Description
One of the most fascinating hypotheses in Arthurian lore is the belief that Merlin the Magician lived backwards through time. In this modern-day fantasy for fans of the King Arthur Legend, evil sorceress Morgan LeFay leaps through time to Merlin's youth, intent on destroying the wizard before he becomes the legendary mentor of kings. However, she is not prepared for what awaits her -- a seemingly strange and magical land filled with horseless carriages and flameless lights. Undaunted, Morgan sets out to expel Merlin from history and to destroy Merlin's student, a very special young hero. Living on Vancouver Island, 12-year-old Michael Halsey is protected from an evil sorceress by his eccentric 6th grade science teacher, Mr. Merlin. Beautiful but deadly Morgan Le Fay pursues Michael into the coastal rainforest of Strathcona Provincial Park where he meets the Lady of the Lake. In a final battle of wits, wills and magic, Merlin sacrifices his future to preserve the past.

In 2019, Robert Hunt is a young man with no family, desperately in need of guidance. He gets in with a bad crowd, eventually part of a bank raid in London. Miraculously, before being arrested, Robert is saved by a ghost named Viviane: the mythical Lady of the Lake, who transports him to 600 AD, to the time of King Arthur. Robert begins as a helper in the kitchen of Camelot Castle, but due to his modern knowledge is quickly promoted and eventually becomes advisor to King Arthur. As Robert introduces things like cannons, gunpowder, and even early electricity, he is deemed a wizard and given the name Merlin. Although now a man of legend himself, Robert’s journey is not over. Leaving behind King Arthur’s court, Viviane transports Robert to 1200 AD to the time of Robin Hood, no more than a highwayman when they first meet. Robert helps turn Robin Hood into a hero, but at the same time, Robert is becoming a man with power and purpose. His journey is one of adventure, danger, death, and rebirth as a simple man travels back in time to shape the legends we know today while paving his own path to greatness.

Merlin's War

Book Description
Merlin’s War: The Battle between the Family of Light and the Family of Dark examines the fact that the history of the human race has been manipulated by a being so clever that we have had no idea he exists. In fact, he has hidden behind Lucifer—but Lucifer is not our devil. Much of what has been told to the human race has been designed to keep the truth at bay. Whose purpose did it serve to keep the human race unaware of its own origins and ignoring huge pieces of obvious evidence because there is no logical explanation for it? It certainly did not serve the human race. Merlin is thought of by most humans as a simple embodiment of the wizard. Merlin’s War reveals that he is much more; he is a powerful Creator God who is responsible for creating the human template and seeding life on the Earth. Moreover, Dracula is thought of as a fictional vampire, when he is, in fact, the being we call Satan, responsible for creating war and chaos on Earth and in other galaxies. There are two points of view to this story, and in order to be fair author Margaret Doner has agreed to tell both sides. Merlin’s War posits that it is time for the playing field to be evened out. The Family of Dark has been in control for too long; it’s time for the Family of Light to move beyond the fear that has kept them enslaved.

Book Description
The Monsters we Make. When magic bleeds into our world, it brings with it monsters born of human imagination and angst. Elijah Wadsoworth is a Druid and his wife, Emilie, is a Bard. Together, they are the only ones who can track down these new creatures and stop them before it's too late. But every case is a mystery. Why do the monsters keep coming back? Who or what is responsible? Elijah never wanted to be a detective, but when duty calls, someone has to take up the mantle. Can Elijah and Emilie solve the mystery and save the world from this new threat? Merlin's Mantle is the first book in the new Druid Detective Agency urban fantasy series. Elijah and Emilie already went through one adventure. Now, ten years after The Druid Legacy, they are facing a new challenge, one that will test their limits. The real threat isn't the otherworldly magic, the magic that once birthed life itself in Eden/Annwn. There was a reason why humanity was cast from the garden groves. When the magic of that place comes home, it won't take long to find out why. The real threat was here all along, hidden in human hearts, now made manifest by the power of creation itself. Harry Potter meets Harry Dresden in Druid Detective Agency. You'll encounter dragons and other mythical creatures. Facing them is nothing compared to fighting with monsters born of the human mind.
