The Other Merlin

Prince Arthur is depressed, Lancelot’s been demoted, and Merlin is disguising her gender in order to practice magic . . . Welcome to the great kingdom of Camelot!

“Simultaneously heart-pounding and hilarious, Robyn Schneider gives us a veritable romp through Camelot fueled by adventure and romance.”—Kerri Maniscalco, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Stalking Jack the Ripper

“Charming and sharply hilarious.”—BuzzFeed

Prince Arthur’s a depressed botanist who would rather marry a library than a princess, Lancelot’s been demoted to castle guard after a terrible lie, and Emry Merlin has arrived at the castle disguised as her twin brother, since girls can’t practice magic.

Life at court is full of scandals, lies, and back-stabbing courtiers, so what’s a casually bisexual teen wizard masquerading as a boy to do? Other than fall for the handsome prince, stir up trouble with the foppish Lord Gawain, and offend the prissy Princess Guinevere.

When the truth comes out with disastrous consequences, Emry has to decide whether she’ll risk everything for the boy she loves, or give up her potential to become the greatest wizard Camelot has ever known.
