Merlin's Apprentice: The Mage
by Susan McCauley
Genre: Epic Middle Grade Arthurian Fantasy
Twelve-year-old
Pip must embrace his magical powers to rescue his family from
slavery—or help the king save the realm—a decision that will tear
his world apart.
Desperate
to keep his family together, Pip hides his power so he can be sold
with them. But when his father and brother are sold to different
mages and the slavers attempt to separate his mother and sister, Pip
loses control and injures a slaver with magic. The uproar catches the
attention of the southern king’s druid advisor, Merlin, who quickly
offers a place to Pip, his sister, and his mother. On the road to
King Arthur’s court, bandits attack their camp, and his family is
further torn apart. Pip has no choice but to work with Merlin—who
may not be the evil mage Pip assumes him to be—to learn to harness
his powers so he can help King Arthur stop Mordred. Only then might
Pip have a chance to see his family together again.
