The crew of the Blue Jay saved Ship’s Mage Damien Montgomery from a horrific punishment on the orders of a Hand of the Mage King of Mars. Wanted as criminals, they seek sanctuary in the UnArcana worlds. When the Captain is offered a contract by the secret enemies of the Mage King, Damien must ask how far can a Mage trust those who despise all things magic? Starship’s Mage is space opera set in a future we would never have where humanity’s far flung interstellar colonies are tied together by the Protectorate of the Mage King of Mars and the magic of the Jump Mages. Starship's Episode 3 is a 25,786 word novella, the third of five in a serial. All five episodes have been released, including an Omnibus of the entire serial.
