Three hundred years after the war to end all wars, Roman Bowditch, an old prototype cyborg is the only man left alive who recalls the Old World, and has seen the New World rebuild, looking back into history to start again. Living for three centuries in a brutal land where men ride steel horses and fight electronic dragons, and torture and extreme and sometimes forced cybernetic conversion is considered acceptable, he feels quite alone - until he meets Leon, the Cyborg King and his fiancee Clara. Then Roman finds a place in his half-mechanical heart for both of them - in different ways - and becomes Lord Bowditch, royal dragon slayer. For a while Roman is happy - for the first time in many centuries - but troubled times are looming that will see him fight mechanical dragons, go off to sea in search of new lands and the dangers they hide, and finally, to face the prospect of a civil war that may tear the Steel Heartland apart, and shatter the lives of those he loves forever...
