Cover Art: Larry Rostant / Artist Partners (illustrator). 2003 Edition. © 2002: 2nd in the 'Merlin Codex' series of books. 1st printing of 2003 edition:- Synopsis: Robert Holdstock seamlessly blends myth and history into a fabulous tale of Merlin, hundreds of years before the coming of Arthur. In this acclaimed sequel to 'Celtika', Merlin is returning to Alba, the future England, with his companions, the crew of the resurrected Argo. Wandering the paths of the world, husbanding his magic to keep himself from ageing, Merlin eschews, for the most part, the affairs of men. Few are those he deigns to call 'friend' and fewer those who welcome his friendship - it is not safe to walk for long in the wanderer's strategies. Those who do, both willing and unwilling, must usually pay a price. Caught up in events beyond their ken are characters destined to become the very stuff of legend: the mythic champion Jason; Urtha and his vengeful children; the northern sorceress Niiv; and Kinos, Jason's son, whose appearance is both terrible and tragic. And at the centre, moving along his never-ending path, is Merlin himself, an enchanter in the prime of his life, reckless, curious, powerful, yet a stranger to his own past - a past that is catching up with him:- Review(s): "Quite simply, one of the books of the year" - Infinity Plus / "Robert Holdstock is a powerful mythmaker. His prose has a hauntingly powerful energy that leaves you feeling as though you're breathing in myth as if it were a physical substance" - The Times / "Our finest living mythmaker" - Stephen Baxter:- (original cost £6.99).

When hate and treachery drive them apart, Merlin wanders until a chance meeting leads him to find and raise the hulk of the Argo, which contains the spirit of Jason.
