Dragonlance There's A New Dragonlance Novel Coming

After all the legal drama between WotC, Margaret Weis, and Tracy Hickman recently, this probably won't surprise anybody. However, on Amazon, there is now a placeholder for a Dragonlance paperback novel set for a 29th July release this year.

The 2020 lawsuit referred to a trilogy - Dragons of Deceit, Dragons of Fate, and a third book.

As expected, it's by Weis and Hickman, and being published by Del Rey which is the sci-fi and fantasy imprint of Penguin Random House. It's 304 pages. And that's pretty much all we know!

After the lawsuit was dropped, Margaret Weis tweeted that exciting news was coming; it looks like this is that exciting news.

Dragonlance is a legacy D&D setting and best-selling novel series created in the mid-1980s by TSR, the then-owners of Dungeons & Dragons.

That is a short novel by today's standards isn't? Still, looking forward to more info.
Yes very short by today's standards, but also quite short by earlier Dragonlance novel standards - the first one is 448 pages, and most are around 400 pages.

Not really looking forward to it, I have to say. Pretty much everything that was ever cool about Dragonlance got trashed in one of the (many) later novels.
 


its been a long time and I honestly didn't read all of the lance books that came after the twins series. With todays rules I don't know I I can say spoilers but did they rewrite history at any point (Sturm/Flint etc ) or is this most likely a lost tales book
 





Will it continue the metaplot after the war of souls? What does it happen with the third continent?

Will DM guild open a space for Dragonlance y 3PP?

In the past I felt a lot of curiosity about Dragonalnce characters drawned with a Disney look, but today I don't worry too much if this is possible by fanart. I think Disney would love to produce a CGI serie, but today Hasbro has got a deal with Paramount.

After Baldur's Gate III and a sequel of Planescape you can bet about a Dragonlance franchise. Here the fandom may allow optional retcon, for example to choose a different list of PCs.

If my past theory about future event causing the reboot of the D&D multiverse is true, Dragonlance would be one of the most affected.
