The Complete Saga
Book Collection
This era spans thousands of years and marks the beginning of recorded history. Mortal civilizations begin to rise, including the elves, dwarves, and humans. Magic is formalized with the founding of the Orders of High Sorcery, and the gods interact more directly with the world. The Age of Dreams is also a time of great conflict, most notably the three Dragon Wars, in which chromatic and metallic dragons first wage battle over Krynn. Empires rise and fall, but it is also an age of discovery and wonder, when the potential of mortals first flourishes.
The long-awaited historical saga of the rivalrous dwarven clans of Krynn and the birth of the legendary Thorbardin—told here for the very first time
An old dwarven chieftain, Colin Stonetooth, leads a tribe of Hylar in a migration across Ansalon, pursuing a vision of a new home. Hordes of dangerous outsiders, fleeing the Dragon Wars, sweep across the countryside. Evil magic, strange knights, and precocious kender abound, endandering Stonetooth and his followers during their journey.
In the Kharolis Mountains, in Kal Thax, the Hylar come upon squabbling dwarven clans and knit them into the new nation of Thorbardin. But a Theiwar assassin precipitates a civil war, a curse is fulfilled—and a child is born destined to become the Father of Kings.
