Merlin Conspiracy

Product Description

A glorious new fantasy from an award-winning author. The story is narrated by two very different teenagers who each inhabit two extraordinarily different worlds. Arianrhod Hydes world (or Roddy as she prefers to be called) is very much the world of magic pageantry & ritual. Not unlike Britain in King Arthurs Day Roddy is daughter of two Court Wizards & therefore part of the Kings Progress travelling round the Islands of Blest & ready to take part in whatever ritual or ceremony is required as it occurs. Presiding over all the most important person is the Merlin who is entrusted with the magical health of the Isles of Blest. Nick Mallorys world is much more familiar
- at least it starts off being our own. But it soon transpires that Nicks not quite the ordinary 15 year old he seems as he slips sideways into something he thinks is a dream
- but in fact is another world entirely. Now Nicks been on other worlds before (although never alone) but hes a confident type. Maybe a bit too confident... In Roddys world the current Merlin expires & a new one takes his place. Yet something is wrong
- the rituals have been upset & nothing is going the way it should. Roddy needs help & certain powers indicate that Nick is to be the one to help her. & Nick is cool about helping her
- in theory...but its a bit worrying that she seems to mistake him for a magic-user. Their stories unfold side-by-side each part leading into the next & the Merlin Conspiracy thickens as the tales swirl around each other
- twining meeting & affecting each other yet never completely combining until the very end chapters when all is finally revealed. Compelling howlingly funny in places mind-boggling
- this is going to WOW DWJ fans all around the world (and probably in other universes too).
