A story based on several Arthurian myths that state both Arthur and Merlin will return to save England in its greatest hour of need, Merlin's Return is the legend of King Arthur transported to modern times. It is essentially the story of the forces of good against evil. Merlin returns to the world after many centuries to find and awaken King Arthur, in order to defeat an evil wizard from Merlin's own time, by the name of Marcus Huxley. The modern day Huxley is a charismatic politician, who is on the verge of becoming the country's next Prime Minister. Merlin must prevent Huxley from gaining power, for beneath the charming façade lies a wizard, who feeds on other people's misery and despair. Huxley would destroy Britain if he ever got into power. Merlin recruits young Tom Huxley to help in their battle against the evil Huxley. Through this adventure, Tom learns the qualities of loyality, courage, and friendship, but most important of all, he learns how to believe in himself.
