Gears of Troy

When naval officer Troy Weston loses his hands in a training accident, the doctors present him with a unique offer: robotic replacement hands with added strength and durability. He'll be a new man with a new life, far more capable than he ever was before. He accepts, and during his recovery he returns to Lake Superior to pilot his sailboat on bays he's known since childhood. During a fierce and wild thunderstorm, Troy and his craft are sent through a portal and into an unknown world. When the rain settles, he finds himself on a foreign coastline surrounded by Greek architecture.

The king is dying, and only Troy can help. When an enemy ambassador visits the city of Ilium, he brings a rare device that will send King Priam into a death spiral, but Troy will not let that happen without a fight.

Troy Weston is taming the ancient world, one battle - and queen - at a time. As he builds his empire, he'll find that not all enemies are what they seem. An invading army powered by wild magic and captured spirits will face him down, but his own people are busy, too, and their new technologies will bridge the worlds between science and sorcery.
