The Lost Years of Merlin is T. A. Barron’s original five-book series, published between 1996 and 2000. It begins with The Lost Years, where a boy with no name and no memory washes up on the Welsh coast and begins a journey to discover who he really is. The Seven Songs of Merlin, The Fires of Merlin, The Mirror of Merlin, and The Wings of Merlin continue the story as he grows in power and understanding.

The pentalogy covers the “lost” period of Merlin’s life before he appears in Arthurian legend, filling in a backstory entirely of Barron’s invention. It became the foundation for the larger Merlin Saga, which expanded with the Great Tree of Avalon and Merlin’s Dragon series.
