Merlin's Shakespeare Encounter Malcolm John Baker

Merlin has been moved on from his encounter with King Arthur and Robin Hood to Middle-Aged England; he has become in charge of the archers to King Henry V in his war with France, leading to the Battle of Agincourt. Romance flourishes, along with espionage and treachery. He is then moved on by the ghost of Viviane, lady of the lake, from King Arthur to Queen Elizabeth and the Spanish Armada, where he meets Shakespeare in person and is with Francis Drake in the sea battle. He marries and takes on running of the Globe Theater.
