About this ebook

The people are tinder waiting to spark. His homeland smolders on the edge of chaos. Can he ignite a revolution?


The Iron Empire is soft, rotten, and ripe for change. The guilds are repressive. The price of dragon products is soaring. The mage menace spreads unchecked. Resentment builds. One day, a young hero clanks into the capital with a metal foot . . . swearing he'll kick the imperial palace to rubble.


Devin, more artifice than mage with his mechanical limb, returns to the empire, his nemesis Captain Vice in hot pursuit. The firebrand mage stirs the passions of imperial citizens under the guise of dragon conservation. We are all like slabs of dragon flesh: once powerful and mighty, but the empire bleeds us until nothing remains but bones and ruptured organs. The message resonates. A rebellion is born in secrecy and treachery. Beneath their cloaks of lies and shifting alliances, mages, gentry, and commoners alike reach for the mantle of the butchered dragon while Captain Vice's steel fist slowly closes around them.


Rise up and smash the state in Book Three of The Artifice Mage Saga. Join the fantasy steampunk brawl of metal vs. magic where sorcery is bloody, science is greasy, and nobody's hands are clean.

Brilliant epic fantasy at the crux of old magic vs. Artificers metalworking might and power. Incredible world building and heartfelt character development; a series that deserves to be noticed and published in the big league of fantasy authors. Worth taking notice of from the first page of book 1 onwards, without fail, you heard it here first! I wish there were more authors even half as good; meanwhile with bated breath I wait for book 4 !!! Excellence !!!

About the author

Jeffrey Bardwell writes steampunk, dark fantasy, and romance fantasy all set in the Metal vs. Magic Universe. He wrote his first fantasy epic when he was seven: a thrilling single page adventure. Subsequent stories have grown and matured alongside their author. He devours fantasy and science fiction novels and is most comfortable basking near a warm wood stove. When not writing, Jeffrey enjoys cooking, gardening, and shooing baby dragons from the compost bin.

The author lives on a farm and in a prior life worked as a community ecologist. He is overfond of puns and alliterations. He is also an unabashed history and mythology enthusiast and would love to hear from you.
