Bronze Canticles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Bronze Canticles is a series of fantasy novels written by Tracy and Laura Hickman, comprising to date Mystic Warrior, Mystic Quest and Mystic Empire.
The series is set across three worlds:
Aerbon, World of the Dragonkings: For more than four centuries, humanity has worshipped the five god-like Dragonkings. But without ever realizing it, one mere blacksmith is about to change all that...
Sine'shai, World of the Faery: The Faeries are the highest order of life, of that there is no doubt. One scientist's search for truth has the power to alter the course of three worlds...
G'tok, World of Lost Titans: The greedy Goblins worship machines and burn books. For a lowly engineer, visions of other worlds are about to change his life forever...
Official blurb, paperback edition of Mystic Warrior:
- Thrice upon a time, there were three worlds of magic.
- On one world, faeries suffer in a war against centaurs and satyrs. On another, goblins scrabble about the ruins of giant machines. And on the third, humans are ruled by theocracies that worship five immortal dragons. The task of their priests: to gather the insane for dark purposes.
- Galen Arvad, a young blacksmith, is plagued by fantastic dreams and tortured by common objects that talk to him. Unable to hide his eccentricities, he is hauled away and plunged into a deep chasm of danger and intrigue. But Galen's madness is a sign of magic that can bridge realms and strike down dragon lords. Can Galen learn to use his power-- before he's destroyed by the monsters that rule his world?
