Inspired by a real-life unsung hero, this amazing journey unfolds in a world beyond mortal comprehension. Only a thin barrier separates what mortals have always known and accepted as "reality," from what is "actual reality."

Dare to discover a long-hidden secret from Merlyn's storied past. It is a terrifying age when the universe is in grave danger. The wise old magician is forced into an unlikely alliance. With slim hope they will even survive, let alone succeed, there's no doubt the ancient wizard is embarking on a perilous adventure he will likely never tell.

"Merlyn And The Mortal's Curse" spans time and crosses into unbelievable dimensions that will determine the future, and very existence of the Mortal's Universe.

Before Merlyn and his reluctant ally's perilous journey reaches its eventual destination, and they engage in the final, epic battle with evil, hopefully the ally will be able to answer the ancient riddle.
About the Author: Otis Farmer was born on the run, the second son to a military family who had three children in four years. The eldest son was born at Fort Ord, on Monterey Bay, in California, then Otis was born, all the way across the country in Portsmouth, Virginia, and then halfway back across country his little sister was born in El Paso, Texas. Six months later the family was living in Germany four years. With travel and new adventures so much a part of and influencing his early life, it was only natural when Otis was age thirteen, God would instill deep in his heart an unquenchable thirst for adventure and a strong desire to write about fantastic journeys which would only be possible in a boundless and very active imagination. As an adult, Otis has always sought out new and challenging adventures: hiking, cycling, scuba diving off the island of Maui, flying a high performance glider, and flying into the crater of Mt. St. Helen in a helicopter, to name a few. However, his greatest adventures still await, those he has yet to boldly launch, in real life and those still inviting, and luring him into amazing worlds he longs to share with eager readers. The best is yet to come. In January of 2012, due to the "Dedication" of "Merlyn And The Mortal's Curse," Otis was invited to spend three hours a week at The Arc of High Point, North Carolina, where on Friday mornings he teaches art lessons to individuals with Autism, Downs Syndrome and a number of other mental and physical developmental issues. It didn't take long for Otis to realize he was the real student being taught unconditional love by the very individuals he was asked to teach. In January of 2013, Otis assisted in beginning a Monday morning pottery program for the same art students at The Arc, which he assists with instructing. No price can be placed on the joy, the tremendous satisfaction and sense of accomplishment Otis receives in the form of precious smiles and the unique humor he shares with his new friends while they complete each work of art and every piece of pottery. In every class new heights of accomplishment are reached in The Creative Arts Studio at The Arc of High Point, North Carolina. It is impossible to put into words the unmatched joy Otis receives every second he spends in the studio with such unique and wonderful individuals.
