The runtime is 5 hours and 43 minutes even though it is abridged.

Synopsis: "The islands of Blest keep the balance of magic in half the multiverse. If something goes wrong with the magic on Blest, it will have a ripple effect on many other worlds. Something is about to go wrong … It all begins when the Merlin of Blest dies of a heart attack. Or was he murdered by sorcery?


Two friends, Roddy and Grundo, suspect a conspiracy, but no adult will believe them. When a boy from another world, Nick, blunders into the trouble on Blest, Roddy tries to enlist his help.

But what can three children who are just discovering their magical talents do against the new Merlin, the Earthmistress, and the dark powers they’re calling up?". - Bookbrowse.com
