The Merlin Deposition

After stumbling across a crate of artifacts from the Dark Ages, Race Garrett and his team at the Smithsonian Institute rush to translate an ancient journal that may unlock the origins of the King Arthur legend, but powerful and influential people also want the journal and aim to take it by any means necessary. In their latest historical fiction novel, The Merlin Deposition, authors Robert Prather and Cyrus Alderwood weave an incredible tale of Merlin, King Arthur, and ancient magic on the British Iles. This compelling narrative unravels one of history's most enduring mysteries--the true identity of King Arthur, offering a fresh perspective that challenges centuries of legend and scholarly debate. Through meticulous research and imaginative storytelling, The Merlin Deposition explores the epic tale of Arthur through the eyes of Merlin, the enigmatic wizard whose voice weaves together fact, myth, and prophecy. The novel immerses readers in a richly textured world of ancient Britain, where war, politics, and destiny collide. A blend of historical accuracy and captivating fiction positions The Merlin Deposition as a must-read for fans of Arthurian lore, historical fiction enthusiasts, and those curious about the intersection of legend and reality. "Prather and Alderwood's book is a masterful epic, bringing together myths, legends, and characters beginning in ancient Egypt, extending through the Christian era, and onward into Western Europe during the Dark Ages. They connect them with the Arthurian legend and Merlin, by the discovery of documents over a number of centuries, whose truths are collected and preserved by a small cadre of dedicated historians. Their research is outstanding, combining astronomy, geometry, history and legend together. The meaning "as in Heaven, let it be on Earth" becomes clear with the simultaneous crowning of King Arthur, and the Earth. I promise, you'll never look upon a picture of Stonehenge in the same way again! I am honored to recommend this book." --Gerald Fischer, Archaeologist and Author
