Long after Arthur's last battle, Merlin and Guinevere live on. They retire to a house named Miranda, in the province of Galicia - but retire is hardly the word. Representatives of Europe's Kings and Princes, troubled by all the old ills of a magical world, beat a path to Merlin's door and the ancient spells of Celtic Britain are dusted off. The Emperor of Byzantium is in thrall to a seductress - the Lady of Aquitaine has been turned into a fawn by a daemon - and the French Bishop's parasol has lost its power to turn night into day. Merlin must remedy these defects and disasters with secret skills and good humour.
Old Felipe had been Merlin's page - skein by skein he weaves the fabric of his stories - the last legend of Merlin.
The only edition available, with introduction, notes, bibliography and chronology of Cunqueiro's life and times.
