Fun read and I love that I got the actual paperbacks for a change. It's great to hold a real book once in a while.

My wife, Emilie, and I run a detective agency – not your typical kind.
We specialize in the otherworldly, the kind that surfaces when magic bleeds into our world.
Lately, the bleed has become a gusher.
Strange creatures, ripped straight from myth and nightmare, are pouring out of a portal hidden in the city.
But they're not just sightseeing – they're leaving a trail of bodies in their wake.
And it's clear their target isn't just any innocent citizen, it's the little boy living under our roof – Merlin.
Yes, that Merlin.
Raising a legendary wizard in the 21st century is no walk in the park, especially when his ancient enemies keep popping up to try and stop him reaching his destiny.
Now, with these murderous creatures on the loose, the stakes have never been higher.
Who opened the portal? Why are they after Merlin?
And how can we stop them before they silence the future's greatest sorcerer... and take a whole lot of innocent lives with him?
This is our story. How we became not just druids—but detectives.
All I know is that we’re the only ones standing between our city and these monsters.
And if we can’t protect Merlin, if something harms him before he can go back in time to fulfill his destiny, it will change everything…
...and not for the better.
ALSO INCLUDES:
BOOK 2: ROUNDTABLE KNIGHTS
What if all your nightmares came true?
The "mare" used to be contained in people's dreams.
Now, it takes flesh when you wake.
It disappears as soon as it completes its task...
...killing its host.
How can I possibly catch or kill a monster that only emerges from one's sleep?
I can't figure out how it's choosing its victims.
There's not a thread I can follow to figure out who it will strike next.
My only chance to beat the monster will be to lure it into my dreams and kill the damned thing before it gets away.
There's no guarantee the mare will take the bait.
But if I don't kill it soon, more people will die. And it won't stop until it destroys everyone.
BOOK 3: GRAIL OF POWER
The holy grail has been found.
In the right hands, its elixir can give life, heal, restore...
In the wrong hands, it grants he who sips from it incredible power.
Who stole the grail from the otherworld?
My client hired me to retrieve her son from a new cult that claims to wield the grail's power.
This is more about one young man looking for a spiritual experience.
The grail of their dark communion has great power...
But it comes at an unthinkable cost.
Harry Potter meets Harry Dresden in Druid Detective Agency. Think the Dresden Files and the Iron Druid all wrapped up in one!
You'll encounter dragons and other mythical creatures. Facing them is nothing compared to fighting with monsters born of the human mind.

I read a lot., and trying to get into the authors flow is sometimes difficult. Felt that at times switching between scenes did not seem smooth. As you can see I am not very good at articulating my thoughts. I did enjoy your books and look forward to future books. Rosanne Wuebbling

Ive only gotten as far as the first half of the first book. I'm a 73-yr old great grandmom who has been writing since I was 13 yrs old. Ive several book length stories and another three I'm working on but am too intimidated by the necessary steps for publishing. When I saw you had self-published and had advertised on Facebook, I ordered the set to support a fellow author. I'm intrigued with the premise that Merlin is being raised in the 21st century and that he is beginning to show prescience. I'm interested in seeing where the story goes from here.

Excellent story telling,but you need to read the druid legacy to get the best out of this series.That aside action packed with humour thrown in.Worth a read

OK, but not the best fantasy I've read.

I'm reading the first book, Merlin's Mantle, and am thoroughly enjoying it! I love the characters and the action/magic is very entertaining. I should be finished with it and beginning on the second book tomorrow. Excellent!

I bought the books more to read in 2026. I read one to see what I was getting into. WOW. just WOW! It was beyond amazing. The pace was insane. The characters dynamic. The story original and had so many cool elements. I HIGHLY recommend Theo to ANYONE.

I enjoyed books 1-3 of the Druid series and will be ordering books 4-6 within the next couple of weeks. Normally I keep all my books forever, and reread them often, but my 15 year old great-granddaughter is a big fan of Merlin; I have given them to her and will send the next 3 after I have read them.

Delivered promptly. I've just started Book 2. I am enjoying the development of the characters. The story line reminds me of Catherine Briggs Mercy Thompson series and the tv show Stranger Things. This is a compliment. I will be ordering more after book 3. Keep up the good work!
