Jeff Nostro's simple life is upended when he is selected to be Earth's champion in a tournament run by sadistic aliens. The prize: survival of the human race. No pressure, huh?

Transported to a bizarre world full of monstrous challenges and game-like stats where magic is real and the contestants will do anything to grow their powers and get through to the next level, Jeff has to rely on all his skills to progress, armed only with an enchanted sword and a back-talking AI.

Follow The Steel Mage as he fights for his life… and all of ours.
