[QUOTE="Kesh, post: 1303303, member: 1308"] Get ready for a butt-numb-a-thon. :cool: This is what you should read to get caught up on the world of Dragonlance in the "Age of Mortals." I'm only going to list the 'core' books for now. [i]Dragonlance Chronicles[/i] consists of: [list] [*]Dragons of Autumn Twilight [*]Dragons of Winter Night [*]Dragons of Spring Dawning [/list] [i]Dragonlance Legends[/i] is made of: [list] [*]Time of the Twins [*]War of the Twins [*]Test of the Twins [/list] At this point, if you want to learn more about Raistlin & Caramon's early days, read: [list] [*]Soulforge [*]Brothers in Arms [/list] Another optional, but recommended read, is [b]The Second Generation[/b]. Now, the original 4th Age of the first stories ends, and the 5th Age begins in [b]Dragons of Summer Flame[/b]. Skip ahead a bit. :D Now, we come to events which turn the 5th Age into the Age of Mortals and brings us to the present day: [i]War of Souls[/i] [list] [*]Dragons of a Fallen Sun [*]Dragons of a Lost Star [*]Dragons of a Vanished Moon [/list] All of these books are by the original authors, Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. These are the 'essential' books for Dragonlance (with noted exceptions). The three trilogies are the must-reads to really get into the setting. This is why people compare DL to Middle Earth in scope. ;) There are tons of other novels by various authors, but these are the important ones. [/QUOTE]
