Beautiful Amber is the only survivor of a brutal Viking attack, and even though her wounds heal, she refuses to speak. Powerful, handsome Truan Monroe loves Amber, but he knows that he can never claim her; beneath his pretense of being a poet and maker of simple magic tricks lurks a truth he can never reveal: Truan is a mighty warrior and sorcerer with incredible powers, including the ability to change shape. When Amber is kidnapped and taken through time to Camelot by evil Gareth, Truan discards his disguise and is recognized as the son of Merlin, the powerful magician of Camelot. Truan must save Amber, so he follows her through the centuries to Camelot, where he wages war against Malagraine, Lord of Darkness, to win Amber's freedom.

I liked this book very much! This is Truan's story. We met him in book four and now he has is own story. Truan is the son of Merlin and he feels that there is no way he can love due to the fact that he is half mortal.

Amber (we met her in previous books as well) has suffered greatly and is unable to speak. She is drawn to Traun the 'fool' and jokster. Truan despite his best attempts also finds himself drawn to the the silent beauty. The darkness manages to get a hold of Amber and takes her back to the time of Aruthr. When Camelot was more then just a legend! Here Amber is able to speak and laugh and finds herself with no memory of Truan but is drawn to him just the same. The battle of good and evil is fought yet again in this magical place and love blooms for both Truan and Amber.

This was a great read and worthy of being part of the this romantic series.
