About this listen

For those of us familiar with Western legends, the name Merlin is immediately recognizable from the King Arthur stories. Yet, how much do we know about Merlin's life before he met Arthur? We assume he is just a powerful and wise man, but when we peer into his childhood, we see something much more fascinating.

Merlin is born of the sea and is composed of stone. He is part of the earth, in touch with all creation, and yet feels a yearning to know what it is like to be human. His birth into our world requires nothing less than the invention of magic itself.

This story is purely fantastical and not based on any known legends. Amazing and preposterous events occur that are not connected in any fashion with Arthur. It recounts Merlin's first adventure, in which he encounters a snow fox and must learn how to use the power of gems to battle a mysterious figure who controls the snow fox.

I came to this audiobook with a little bit of unease as the author has been very supportive and kind to me on a number of my small projects over the past couple of years. I didn't want it to be mediocre and have the awkward situation of having to deal with that. Fortunately Patrick has written a lovely tale of magic and discovery which could have been written fifty or a hundred years ago. I don't mean it's dated but more that it feels timeless and classic.
The recording is not studio quality but there was never a time it was anything less than clear. I felt the slightly DIY nature of the recording added to it's charm and especially with the musical interludes that are weaved very cleverly into the story. It is a story that benefits from being read aloud and i think Patrick has done an excellent job with that. I didn't realise his talents extended to this. More please.
