Synopsis:
Inspired by Mark Twain's A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court, this three-part story (plus two epilogues) depicts a chaotic time in Camelot. Merlin has been imprisoned by the evil sorceress Queen Vivianne, and the future King Arthur is not yet worthy to claim the Sword in the Stone. Freeing himself, Merlin travels to Chicago in 1925 and enlists the aid of four gangsters--Al, Frank, Bugsy, and Lucky--to inspire Arthur and to protect the realm from Vivianne and her sister Morgan until Arthur can achieve his destiny.
