Previously titled Tom's Arthurian Legacy.
Book 1
King Arthur is destined to return, and Tom is destined to wake him.
When sixteen year old Tom’s grandfather mysteriously disappears, Tom stops at nothing to find him, even when that means crossing to a mysterious and unknown world.
When he gets there, Tom discovers that everything he thought he knew about himself and his life was wrong. Vivian, the Lady of the Lake, has been watching over him and manipulating his life since his birth. And now she needs his help.
Danger threatens the old forest of Vivian’s world. To save it, Tom must wake King Arthur, who’s been sleeping for centuries. But first, he’s determined to find his grandfather.
Tom starts a journey that will change his life forever. He discovers that fey and magic still exist, and myths are very real.
If he wants to survive, he must learn to fight, and find courage he never knew he had.
Book 2
Merlin disappeared over a thousand years ago. Now they risk everything to find him.
Vivian needs King Arthur’s help. Nimue, a powerful witch and priestess who lives on Avalon, has disappeared.
King Arthur, Tom, and his friends set off across the Other to find her, following Nimue’s trail to Holloways Meet. But what they find there makes no sense.
Nimue seems to have a quest of her own, one she's deliberately hiding. Arthur is convinced it's about Merlin, and he’s determined to find him.
Against his better judgement Tom follows Arthur on a dangerous trip that could end his new life before it’s even begun.
The search pits them not only against Nimue, but a dragon sorcerer, dragons, and the sylphs.
Book 3
An ancient sword. A dark secret. A new enemy.
Tom loves his new life in the Otherworld. He lives with Arthur in New Camelot, and Arthur is hosting a tournament. Eager to test his sword-fighting skills, Tom’s competing.
But while the games are being played, his friends are attacked and everything he loves is threatened. Tom has to find the intruder before anyone else gets hurt.
Tom’s sword seems to be the focus of these attacks. Their investigations uncover its dark history and a terrible betrayal that a family has kept secret for generations.
This secret now puts others at risk, including Tom, and once again, Tom, King Arthur and his friends have to race to solve the mystery of his sword’s past, or he could lose everything.
