The Dragons of Krynn Tales of Uncle Trapspringer
When Wanderlust overcomes young Trapspringer Fargo, his insatiable drive for adventure propels him along a route that only a kender could map. With curiosity as his only guide, he sets out across Ansalon and unknowingly crosses paths with a pair of corrupt gully dwarves and a misplaced evil fiend (Oops!). The result is not only the inevitable madness and mayhem, but also a chance for the diminutive Trapspringer to save all of Krynn from a catastrophe of Takhisian proportions.
Dragons of Summer Flame
The War of the Lance is long over. The seasons come and go. The pendulum of the world swings. Now it is summer. A hot parched summer such as no one on Krynn has ever known before. The uneasy balance begins to shift.
The War of the Lance has ended. The darkness has passed. Or has it? One man, the powerful archmage, Raistlin, intends that the darkness return.
Two people alone can stop him. One is Crysania, a beautiful cleric of good, who is drawn to Raistlin as a moth is drawn to flame. The other is his twin, Caramon, who must come to an understanding of himself before he can redeem his brother.
Together with the irrepressible kender, Tasslehoff, these three take a perilous journey back in time to the days just before the Cataclysm.
In the doomed city of Istar, poised on the brink of disaster, dark magic and darker ambition battle love and self-sacrifice in a quest to save not only the world but more importantly - a soul.
The first volume in the second fantasy trilogy set in the world of the DRAGONLANCE® saga.
War of the Twins - Volume 2
The fiery mountain struck Krynn. The gods shattered the Temple of Istar.
One hundred years later, the continent of Ansalon is a desolate land, its people struggling for survival in a world ravaged by plague, starvation, and war.
Escaping the doomed city of Istar, Raistlin - now a wizard of great power - casts a spell that brings his twin brother, Caramon, and the cleric, Crysania, forward to this point in time. Here, in the Tower of High Sorcery, Raistlin intends to enter the Portal and challenge the Dark Queen.
But, one by one, Raistlin's plans start to unravel. Too late he discovers that he is caught in a time loop - one that must lead inexorably to his own destruction!
One from which there seems to be no escape. . . .
Test of the Twins - Volume 3
Raistlin casts the magical spell that has cost him so much. For him, the Portal opens. . . .
But, at the same instant, his twin brother, Caramon, operates the magical time-traveling device. The fields of magic shift and collide. Caramon and the kender, Tasslehoff, are flung into an unexpected time and place where they make a horrifying discovery.
And Raistlin enters the Abyss, prepared to face his most deadly challenge - Takhisis, Queen of Darkness. And so ends the epic tale that began in DRAGONLANCE® Chronicles with the meeting of old friends at the Inn of the Last Home under the vallenwoods.
Before the Cataclysm . . .
A kender becomes a Solamnic Knight (almost).

The Cataclysm
The War of the Lance
Silvanos, the august founder of the united elven nation known as Silvanesti, is dead and buried in a crystal tomb. The leadership of the clans and households has fallen to his son, Sithel, who is himself father of twin sons. The princes Sithas and Kith-Kanan represent emerging factions among these elves: Kith-Kanan is the leader of the Wildrunners, a group of elves that stirs tension by forging contacts and trade with the humans of Ergoth; Sithas closely allies himself with the court in the elven capital. The rivalry between kin climaxes with their father's mysterious death. When Kith-Kanan is vaguely implicated, Sithas, the first-born twin, is enthroned.

The leader of the Wildrunners, Kith-Kanan, commits the ultimate heresy and falls in love with a human of intriguing background. His twin brother, the firstborn ruler of all Silvanesti elves, Sithas, declares war on the Ergothians, and Kith-Kanan must choose sides. Nobly, he fights alongside his proud race in the terrible Kinslayer Wars. But when the historic Swordsheath Scroll is signed, Kith-Kanan and his followers are forced into a tragic exile.

But Kith-Kanan is haunted by his failures: acrimony between the elven factions and the mysterious behavior of his son, his future successor.

Now fully grown, she has much to learn about being a dragon in a world where her kind are feared as the villains in stories told to children.
Her lessons are hard, learned at the hands of two achingly beautiful creatures who entrust her to save their race; an aging evil dragon who resents Khisanth's innate power; and the only man she considers her equal, one she would honor by carrying him into battle ... if only he were not her sworn enemy.
When a conspiracy at the highest levels of the Black Wing threatens the Dark Queen's army, Khisanth realizes her true devotion to evil and is rewarded with a destiny handed down by Takhisis herself.

Joined by a young kendermaid, a human lad, and a devout, if somewhat naive priest, Emilo is drawn into a mysterios quest. As he draws closer to the secret of his past, he and his friends find themselves caught in an increasingly sinister web of intrigue.
