From the back of the book: Avalon is under attack. The Saxon hordes are advancing against the kingdom and the magic sword Excalibur, defender of the realm, has vanished. But a freak accident of Merlin’s magic transport you to ancient Greece - far from the desperate battle against the invaders... Cast adrift aboard a vessel of dazzling gold and stripped of your weapons and magic spells, you must confront a host of hideous enemies. Can you overcome the gigantic, one-eyed Cyclops, the loathsome Harpy, the hammer-wielding Vulcan, and the animated corpse of a rotting mummy - and then navigate your way through Time back to Avalon?
