Summary Tells the story of the wizard Merlin from his abandonment at the age of eight until, at twelve, he begins to understand the scope of his powers. This is the legendary story of Merlin, from his abandonment by his parents at the age of eight to the discovery of his powers at twelve. Together, these three novels reimagine the origins of the greatest wizard of all time, giving readers a Merlin at once more human and more magical than any that has appeared before. Jane Yolen's masterful Young Merlin novels for the first time together in one volume. When Merlin is just eight years old, his parents abandon him, leaving him to starve to death in the woods. He survives. More than that, he thrives: Over the course of the next four strange years, he discovers and tames his terrifying powers; pretends to be a traveling player, passing among peasants and princes; and fatefully befriends a future king. In the three novels of the Young Merlin Trilogy: Passager, Hobby, and Merlin, master storyteller Jane Yolen reimagines the origins of the greatest wizard of all time, bringing to life a Merlin at once more human and more magical than any who have appeared before.
