The Artefacts of Power is Maggie Furey’s debut series, an epic fantasy saga that begins with Aurian (1994). The books follow the mage Aurian through a world where ancient artifacts hold the key to enormous power, and where political and magical conflicts drive the plot forward. The series includes Harp of Winds (1994), The Sword of Flame (1995), and Dhiammara (1996).
The series was published during a strong period for epic fantasy in the 1990s and earned Furey a readership among fans of traditional, large-scale fantasy storytelling. The books feature a detailed magical system, a cast of characters spread across different factions, and the kind of world-spanning adventure that defined the genre during that era.
