The Seven Songs of Merlin
Book II of The Lost Years of Merlin epic
Here is how the publisher describes this book on the jacket cover:
Young Merlin has brought new hope to Fincayra, the enchanted isle that
lies between earth and sky. Having finally freed it from the terrible
Blight, Merlin and the forest girl Rhia set out to heal the land using
the magical Flowering Harp. But Fincayra remains in great danger
still—and the first victim of the renewed tide of of evil is Merlin's
own mother.
Merlin's sole hope of saving his mother's life is to master the Seven
Songs of Wisdom passed down from the greatest wizard Fincayra has ever
known, Merlin's grandfather Tuatha. Only then can he voyage to the
Otherworld of the spirits and obtain the precious Elixir of Dagda. Yet
to do that he must first succeed where even Tuatha failed—be defeating
Balor, the ogre whose merest glance means death. Even more difficult,
Merlin must discover the secret of seeing not with his eyes, but with
his heart.
This second book in The Lost Years of Merlin epic combines all
the passion, power, and spiritual depth that are T.A. Barron's
hallmarks. It adds a thrilling new dimension to the legend of Merlin,
even as it offers lasting inspiration to us all.
