Publius Varrus is a veteran Roman officer and a maker of swords. In the early fifth century, amidst the violent struggles between the people of Britian and the invading Saxons, Picts, and Scots, he and his former general, Caius Britannicus, forge the government and military system that will become known as the Round Table, and initiate a chain of events that will lead to the coronation of the High King we know today as Arthur.

It is 395 A.D., and as the Roman armies withdraw from Britian, anarchy threatens the Colony that will one day be known as Camelot. Creating their own army and joining with the Celtic people of King Ullic Pendragon, the colonists emerge as a new breed of Britons, ready to forge the government that will be the Round Table and its Knights and to prepare the groundwork for the future coronation of Arthur, first High King of Britian.

Most know him as Merlyn; all call him Commander. Caius Merlyn Britannicus is responsible for the safety of the Colony known as Camulod, and for the welfare of the colonists who look to him for guidanace, leadership, justice, and salvation. Uther Pendragon, the man who will father the legendary Arthur, is the cousin Merlyn has known and loved since their births --- four hours apart on the same day, the year the legions left Britian. As different as can be, they are inseparable: two faces of the same coin. In a world torn apart by warfare and upheavel, each is the other's certainty --- until a vicious crime, one that strikes at the roots of Merlyn's own life, drives a wedge between them.

The orphaned baby Arthur, heir to the Colony of Camulod and born with both Roman heritage and the royal blood of the Hibernian Scots and the Celtic Welsh, has been adopted by his cousin, Caius Merlyn Britannicus. Merlyn is now the sole custodian of the great dream of his ancestors: that of independent survival in Britian amid the ruins of the imperial Roman world. He is also the keeper of Excalibur, the wondrous sword crafted by his great uncle, Publius Varrus. It is up to Merlyn to teach the young Arthur all that he needs to know to unify the diverse clans of Britian under his kingship. And it is Merlyn's laborious responsibility to see that the young Arthur survives the deadly threats to this destiny --- threats that arise from the bloody Saxon Shore.
