Dragonlance Suggested Reading Order

With the release of new Dragonlance book Dragons of Deceit yesterday August 2nd, there may be new readers or longtime fans of the Dragonlance book series who want to hop back into the books that started it all. The following is the suggested reading order of the key trilogies that started the Dragonlance Saga:

Chronicles Trilogy:

Legends Trilogy:

The Second Generation

Dragons of Summer Flame

The Dragonlance Saga began with the Chronicles Trilogy telling the story of companions that were drawn into an epic adventure and war after the return of evil armies and dragons. The Legends Trilogy continues the story after the Chronicles but focuses on the two brothers, Caramon and Raistlin Majere, and Raistlin’s ambitions for power. The Second Generation and Dragons of Summer Flame are set years after the events of the Chronicles and Legends trilogies.

Many longtime fans of Dragonlance will agree that the above list is a good order to start with, but it isn’t a requirement. There are over 100 books in the Dragonlance series and new readers could certainly start anywhere. Refer to the Complete List of Dragonlance Books page to see the entire collection organized by trilogy / series.
