This is a list of the published novels set in the fantasy world of Dragonlance, which was originally created as a setting for a role-playing game in the Dungeons & Dragons style. Please refer to the main Dragonlance article for further information.

Adventures in Krynn

Anthologies

The Dragonlance short story collections are mainly divided into the two publishing lines Tales and Dragons Anthologies. With most recent collections the dividing line has been somewhat erased. In the following are the short story collections listed in chronological order of their publishing dates.

Tales I

Tales II

Although some versions refer to these three books as the Tales II trilogy, others refer to them belonging to the original Tales trilogy, continuing from volume IV (this is because they were originally published as two trilogies and later renumbered as one six-book series).

Dragons Anthologies

Tales of the Fifth Age

Tales/Dragons from the War of Souls/World of Krynn

These three collections are presented as a trilogy by their outer appearance as well as by their title constructions.

The Chronicles Trilogy

This novel trilogy follows the events of the War of The Lance.

A group of old friends and new companions meet and begin their journeys to become the Heroes of the Lance. They enter Xak Tsaroth, find the Disks of Mishakal, are captured, meet Gilthanas, invade Pax Tharkas, meet Elistan, who becomes the first cleric of Paladine, incite a successive slave revolt, and kill a Dragon Highlord.
The companions continue in their journeys to become the Heroes of the Lance. They travel to Tarsis, which is destroyed in an ensuing dragon attack, split into two groups, one of which goes to Silvanesti only to find it ravaged by a nightmare caused by a Dragon Orb, the other to Icewall Glacier where they kill a Dragon Highlord and take his Dragon Orb. The former group succeeds to obtaining the Dragon Orb and ending the nightmare. The latter group are attacked as they escape and are stranded on Southern Ergoth, an island where they meet numerous elves. Eventually, they travel to the tomb of Huma, where they meet Fizban and a silver dragon in disguise. The former group travel to Sancrist Isle, where Sturm becomes a full Knight of Solamnia, a Dragon Orb is shattered, and a dragonlance is forged. The identity of another Dragon Highlord is discovered. The dragons attack, but are driven off with new dragonlances.
The group continue and conclude their journey in becoming Heroes of the Lance.

The following two books are not part of the Dragonlance series, but rather the Ravenloft series. They are crossovers in which Lord Soth and others are transported from Krynn to the Ravenloft world.

  • Knight of the Black Rose (December 1991), by James Lowder, (ISBN 1-56076-156-3)

Six novels set in the Spelljammer universe were published by TSR, before TSR was incorporated into Wizards of the Coast. The novels were interconnected and formed "The Cloakmaster Cycle". The novels tell the story of Teldin Moore, a 'groundling' farmer on Krynn who has a powerful and apparently cursed magical cloak that was given to him. The series puts the character on a quest, and showcases the Spelljammer universe.
