Once there was a girl named Morgan, a girl of magic! She saw her father slain and her mother stolen by a king named Pendragon. But the king was not long to live, and now with an entire country at war and no one to claim the throne there are many who want this girl dead and out of the way. But this girl of magic is powerful. She is about to change the course of history. She is about to become Morgan le Fay. Here is the much-anticipated companion to Nancy Springer's award-winning I Am Mordred. Read it and take a glimpse into the dark beginnings of Camelot.
