A young Merlin goes to high school to recruit candidates to pull Excalibur and prevent a natural disaster, but winds up battling his brother for the control of the sword and the one girl who can save them.

If you can't trust your boyfriend, who can you trust? In this modern Arthurian, nice girl Arriane, aka Ryan, DuLac just found out her bad-boy biker boyfriend, Matt, is a little older than he was letting on. By a few eons. In fact, he is really Merlin--the Merlin, King Arthur's Merlin, the greatest wizard who ever lived. Frozen in a cave for over a fifteen hundred years, he's been woken. But Ryan's not impressed. Tired of being a relationship loser, she'd rather kick his legendary behind. Sure, the world has been crazy ever since the sword and the stone fell out of the sky like a meteor. But despite gruesome gargoyles, an underground world of magic, and the guy driving her crazy, Ryan knows that family is everything. Will Merlin sacrifice hers to save the world? Will she be able to stop him?

"Excalibur has been pulled from the stone, but what does it mean? Arriane (aka Ryan) DuLac doesn't really care. She's got bigger problems--as student president she's got to put on the Prom. While the Wizard Council debates their next move, she leaves the craziness behind and heads home. But she can't hide forever. Sooner than she'd like, Merlin (aka Matt) has her chasing mermaids on the trail of the Fisher King. The wounded King defeated by Merlin's brother, Vane, in the past holds the key to saving the future"--Page [4] of cover.
