The New Fairy Tales (Revised) - Sorcerer's Apprentice

Copyright © 2011 of James Pettis, III

Sorcerer's Apprentice is the ninth fairy tale in the revised series, The New Fairy Tales. It is replacing Peter Pan from my original series The New Fairy Tales. It is loosely based on the poem titled The Sorcerer's Apprentice by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe and Der Zauberlehrling, written in 1797 and Arthurian Legend. It will be about Merlin the Wizard traveling to the present time and recruiting a young man in high school to help him destroy his evil cousin Morgan Le Fay and stop darkness from taking over.

Merlin the Wizard receives a vision of the future and sees his evil cousin, Moran Le Fay, leading the world into darkness using the power of Excalibur. Confused and worried Merlin travels to present time and recruits a young college school student named Arthur King (Whom he mistakes as King Arthur). Arthur becomes Merlin's Apprentice and Merlin teaches him everything he knows. Soon, Merlin figures out the whereabouts of Excalibur and He and Arthur set out to retrieve it. But as darkness rises, will they get to it on time and stop Morgan Le Fay from taking over?

This idea has me very excited, I've always loved The Sorcerer's Apprentice and I will enjoy writing this. Stay posted for more info about Sorcerer's Apprentice.
