Product Description
For the first time ever, the prequel and book 1 of the Artifacts Cycle together in one volume.
Before the Brothers' War, before the five colors of magic, before history itself, Dominaria was ruled by the Thran, an ancient race who built machines and artifacts, the likes of which have never been seen since. But amid this civilization, a shadow took root, one that would stretch its arms across space and time. Amid this ancient civilization's advances, the hideous evil of Phyrexia was born.
Years later, a conflict between the brothers Urza and Mishra over the supremacy on the continent of Terisiaire escalates with the discovery of an ancient artifact, a remnant of the Thran, but with it comes the peril that befell them.
The classic origin story of planeswalker Urza sets the stage for the new age of Magic. This single volume represents two of the most popular Magic stories.

The Thran!!!, July 17 2009
By Joker1430 "Author" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Artifacts Cycle I: A Magic: The Gathering Omnibus (Paperback)
I've just finished the Thran section of the book. And if the Brothers War is as good as the Thran this book would be one of the greatest books i've read this year. Yawgmoth was an incredibly well written character. A monster and angel. I loved every page. J. Robert King did a fine job of introducing players of the game to the novel format. I never thought, being a serious player of the game, that the novels could be this engrossing. Spectacular. I look forward to the next omnibus and hope that Wizards decides to format the entire series in such a manner. R.A Salvatore's Drizzt Collection isnt the only story line that deserves HARDCOVERED attention!!!!!

This review is from: Artifacts Cycle I: A Magic: The Gathering Omnibus (Paperback)
I read these books when they first came out and enjoyed the tie ins to the card game and the back story. The story itself is far reaching and entertaining. It isn't deep but a good read for those fans of Magic the Gathering and fantansy.

This review is from: Artifacts Cycle I: A Magic: The Gathering Omnibus (Paperback)
This is one of the most exciting books I ever read.For the fans of MTG this book will lighten up most of the doubts on how it all started: the birth of Phyrexia (The Thran) and the ascencion of Urza ( Brother's War).
The books are well written and the action is great in both. Non stoping fights, creations of war and the birth of magic itself, together with the artifacts we all see in the TCG is constant.
I'm not really good at writting reviews, but here is my advice:
If play MTG you MUST buy this. If you dont, this is a GREAT fiction book, with a nice setting and characters that should hold your attention for sometime, if you are into magic related histories.
Listmania!
