Set in the mythical city of Camelot, in a time before history began, this magical adaptation of the Arthurian legend follows Merlin's early adventures in the court of King Uther... and his enthralling encounters with the young Prince Arthur...
The Kingdom of Camelot is a realm of legendary beasts and mysterious peoples. In this dangerous world, magic has been banned by the ruthless tyrant, Uther Pendragon. Merlin, a young man gifted with extraordinary powers, arrives at the gates of the city. Though bright-eyed with wonder, the young sorcerer quickly makes enemies, including the headstrong Prince Arthur.
Guided by Gaius, the wise court physician, Merlin is soon using his talents to secretly defend the Kingdom and unlock Camelot's mystical secrets. Soon he discovers that his destiny and that of Arthur, the future King, are inextricably linked.
