Comment: The article is dismal, but it was written by a first-time contributor--|please don't bite the newbies.  As for the subject, it appears to be notable: this is a |book that has gone through several reeditions http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_ss_gw/002-0138196-6451245?url=search-alias%3Dstripbooks&field-keywords=seven+songs+of+merlin&x=0&y=0; T. A. Barron|the author has an article, and so does The Lost Years of Merlin|the previous book in the series.  In its present form the article consists of nothing but a poorly written plot summary, but that is hardly damning considering that it is an editor's first article, and that it was aggressively listed for deletion mere minutes after being created.  Give the author a break, and wait for the article to improve before shooting it down
