description: Boxed Set of three Mary Stewart paperbacks:THE CRYSTAL CAVE Who was Merlin? Was the famed magician of King Arthur's Camelot really a sinister all-powerful being from another world? Was he truly a Price of Darkness? Or was he a man with the passions of other mortals? A man of intelligence &amp; unusual gifts? Why was he so feared? How did he come by his occult powers? Why was the crystal cave so important to him? Stewart's novel brings to life one of the world's great legends &amp; sheds a fascinating new light on the turbulence and mystery of 5th-century this enthralling work, Stewart shows her own great wizardry. Again she reveals those qualities of suspense &amp; romantic adventure that have made her one of the world's widely read novelists.THE HOLLOW HILLSThe suspenseful story of how Merlin, the Enchanter, helped Arthur become king of Britain--a magnificent novel set in a time when no life is safe, no law stable.

When the rose-gold witch Morgause, Arthur's half-sister, ensnares him into an incestuous liaison--bearing his son, Mordred, for her own evil ends--a fatal web of love, betrayal &amp; bloody vengeance is seen thru the eyes of Arthur's prophetic protector, Merlin, whose own mysterious powers are in dire danger. Here's a tale rich with the majesty &amp; turbulence of the legend it tells, resplendent with Stewart's own special magic.
