“WHAT THEY FORESEE WILL SHATTER THIS AGE
In his vision, colossal artifacts stride across his homeland, destroying everything in their path. In a desperate attempt to save his home, Mage Prince Phytiax heads to the wild north in search of allies. On his journey, his magical powers become damaged at the worst possible time, and his destined allies need to be saved before they can help him: Pino, the weakest Mage of all time and wielder of a mysterious artifact sword; Emilai, a kidnapped noblewoman—turned Witch to fight her captors; and Cordin, an old Light Master wanted for murder, but dead-set on getting his life back. With the brutal and mysterious force invading and destabilizing the kingdoms around them, will his potential allies help or hinder him? And even if they save their homelands, the price might be worse than they ever imagined.”

A GRIPPING READ WITH A CLIFF FOR A CONCLUSION!

Unfolding the series
Click image for large version.
If you take the length into account you will probably have guessed that The Artifact War is not about one thing, or one person. In fact it encompasses a great many characters who live across the continent of Gaia. However, one thing connects them all: The End War which throughout the series will, slowly at first, engulf the lands of Gaia in a fight for survival against ancient titan-sized artifact beings brought back to life.
In book one we meet Mage Prince Phytiax. A young prince whose visions warn of the impending invasion. We also get introduced to the other main characters who’ll play a part in saving—or dooming—everyone.
The story continues in Doomsayer Prince Part Two, Arch of the Zhi’el Part One, and Part Two, and concludes with All-Master Part One, and Part Two.
The Artifact War Series is for you if who love modern epics with a fresh take on fantasy. And if you enjoyed the Lord of the Rings and/or Game of Thrones, it’s a good bet you’ll like it.
The story has a lot of action and some violence, and is not meant for children.
Most older teenagers who like fantasy (like someone who finished reading Harry Potter,) should find it quite enjoyable. Especially if they like a story where the future of all mankind is at stake.
