The Starship's Mage (series)
Starship's Mage series (example: books by Glynn Stewart)
Book •
Glynn Stewart's 'Starship's Mage' series combines elements of space opera with fantasy by introducing engineered magic-users (mages) who enable interstellar travel, exploring political and personal consequences of combining science and sorcery.
The series focuses on action-driven plots, interstellar diplomacy, and the ethics of creating and controlling enhanced individuals for practical ends.
Devin references the series as an example of sci-fantasy that influenced his own use of concepts like simulacra for binding or interacting with deities, noting how such fiction can provide terminology and narrative devices later adopted into occult discourse.
The books are accessible, engaging, and emphasize the intersection of technology and spirituality that Devin finds compelling.
