A Merlin mission in Alexander’s world

Jack and Annie travel back in time to meet a young Alexander the Great as they search for four secrets of greatness for Merlin. Their encounter complicates the idea that greatness is obvious: Alexander is described as bossy and vain, leaving the pair to work out what they can learn from him. A wild black stallion, Merlin’s magic, and bravery all play a part in their mission. The ancient-world setting and the question of what makes someone “great” give this adventure its historical and character-focused core.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Children ages 9–12 interested in historical adventures
  • Readers who enjoy Jack and Annie’s Magic Tree House missions
  • Young readers curious about Alexander the Great and ancient civilizations
