SOLVED. 3 worlds and stories happening simultaneously Human,Goblin, and Fairy. [s]

[Barry Vandergriff]

This fantasy series came out 2005 or prior. It was at least two books, and the author was working on a third. It had 3 distinct story lines in each book, and was written as the idea of it was three parallel universes, or worlds. Not sure which, as it didn't reveal much in the second book. One story line focused on humans who were used in a type of gladiator arena by 3 dragons. 1 female two males. The dragons used human warbands for mating rights. The main human character was trying to create a rebellion against the dragons in the second book. the second world was a goblin kingdom, focusing on a goblin who was a maker, and was making figures resembling other worlds from the book in a weird first contact kind of way. The book ended with him making 3 dragons from the human world as clockwork toys for the goblin emperor. The clockwork dragons, once turned on, killed the emperor and the toymaker became the new emperor. The last world, and the one I remember the least about was focused on a fairy world, and the political intrigue of their queen. Thanks for your suggestions.

The Bronze Canticles series by Tracy Hickman - https://www.goodreads.com/series/4191... ?

"The Bronze Canticles is an expansive new saga chronicling the world-altering changes that take place as three connected universes—the Human world, the Goblin world, and the Faery world—are slowly drawn together.
In Book One, Mystic Warrior, young Galen Arvad, a human with magical powers, must avoid the ritual that puts those with such talents to death. It seems that in the eyes of the community, magic is a sign of lunacy, and in a yearly ritual the local "crazies" are offered up to the Dragon Priests. Galen is suddenly captured and imprisoned. Now, as Galen’s wife, Berkita, and his friend, Cephas the dwarf, set off to rescue him, Galen learns of the fate that awaits him, a fate far worse than even his own death."
