Seth Roberts is a typical teenager, that is, until his mother sends him to St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada, to visit his Great Uncle Herman. In St. John’s, Seth discovers that Herman is a wizard, in fact, the son of Merlin himself. Soon, Herman asks Seth if he would like to go on an adventure and he quickly agrees. With the help of a strange medallion, Herman sends Seth back in time to the year 1128 A.D. to Cambria, a village founded by Tristan, one of the Knights of Author’s Round Table. In Cambria, he discovers his true potential, family secrets, and love. Seth soon finds himself on the adventure of a lifetime as he races to save Briana, the queen of Cambia, and Cambria itself.

Herman turned toward Seth, smiling. "We cannot teleport into the village. We will scare the villagers and we might not live to tell about it." Seth smiled once, understanding, and then followed his great uncle. Herman turned sharply to face him. "You are sworn to secrecy as to the location of my shop. I cannot have people wandering in with explosives lying around." Herman pointed toward the cauldron on the table. 


Seth nodded in agreement, saying dramatically, "I will tell no one."


Herman looked at him seriously then. "This is no joke, my dear Seth."


Seth nodded, serious this time, then looked at the cauldron on the table containing the smoking, moving goo. "Will it be okay? Maybe we should cover it up." 


"No!" Herman yelled quickly, making Seth jump, and held out a hand. "Trust me; you do not want to cover it up. If we do, I will no longer have a shop to come back to." Herman walked quickly from the room, and Seth followed.
