History tells us that once upon a time, King Arthur had a son named Duran Pendragon, and he died fighting valiantly in the mighty battle of Camlann. Did he really? Merlin thought that he was protecting Duran by casting him into the time vortex, but rather, he was tricked by the treacherous witch that was since long time a close and admirable consultant. Generations later, an unknowing girl named Soleils stumbles across an ancient spell book, which once belonged to Merlin. By accident she releases Duran from the time warp; unleashing a deadly curse cast by Mordred, a long time enemy of Duran's father King Arthur. Now, Duran, stuck in the future generations later, must find his way back to Camelot and defeat Morgasa, Mordred's evil daughter who has taken over Camelot and set loose an evil that will soon cross over to the future Generation that he is in. Only one problem. Duran is in the year 2012 and his only help is an irritating seventeen year old girl. Could things get any worse?

Born with a damaged heart, Leanna Weston has lived a sheltered life with little chance at adventure. When she hears that Finvarra's Circus is coming to her small town, she sneaks off to witness the magic first hand, sure that this is her only chance at experiencing true magic-even if the frightening rumors about the heartless Ringmaster, Finvarra, are true. Caught by Finvarra, Leanna is given one chance at survival: she must join the circus. As slowly she becomes part of the strange family, Leanna learns that there is more than magic to this circus, but an ancient curse that has tied Finvarra's life to its rings. If the circus fails, he dies. Leanna vows to save the circus, but when a ruthless enemy emerges, set on destroying it and Finvarra, will Leanna be able to save them both, or will her broken heart fail her just when she needs it most?
