A Kind of Peace

DREAMS OF INAN, Book One:

A KIND OF PEACE

By Andy Boot

Inan. A planet where the nation states have been at war for over half a millennium. So are they ready for peace?

Only at a price.

In a world where magic and technology have become intertwined, the Mages of each nation state — the ultimate wizards — have become the ultimate weapons. So what happens when one of them is abducted, and the planet is threatened with a new war that could lead to global annihilation?

The ultimate weapons will meet the ultimate warrior, Simeon 7.

Encountering military might, political machinations, and magical manifestations, those who would oppose him soon find that nothing can break the determination of a warrior on a mission.

About the series

Inan is a world in a far-flung galaxy where magic and technology co-exist and have become intertwined. Alongside hi-tech weaponry and the day-to-day tech of a highly developed culture and civilisation, there also exist a number of mages who have developed magical skills and capabilities beyond the understanding of science. Alongside laser canons there exists the power of spells that can wipe out an opposition army with a gesture and incantation.

The magicians who can wield such magic exist as cloistered academics, dedicated to their art; unaware almost of the role they play as the ultimate deterrent in brokering a worldwide peace. It is their pivotal role that drives the intrigues of the nation states that mix unicorns with hi-tech air-cruisers.

Each novel in this series expands on this exciting fantasy world and explores the dangers and intrigues therein.
