Margaret Weis
Margaret Weis (born 1948 in Independence, Missouri) is an American fantasy novelist who, along with Tracy Hickman, is one of the original creators of the Dragonlance game world and has written numerous novels and short stories set in fantastic worlds.
Dragonlance
Dragonlance is a rich fantasy universe initially crafted by Laura and Tracy Hickman, then expanded by Tracy Hickman and Margaret Weis. The concept was born during a car ride to a job application at TSR, Inc., where Tracy Hickman later teamed up with Weis. Together, they developed a series of Dungeons & Dragons (D&D) adventures, which inspired a wide array of novels, game modules, and related products.
In 1984, TSR released the first novel, Dragons of Autumn Twilight, marking the start of the Chronicles trilogy and establishing the Dragonlance series. This core trilogy, written by Hickman and Weis, introduced the world of Krynn, characterized by its elaborate history spanning five ages. Most stories are set during the fourth age, The Age of Despair, while the fifth age, The Age of Mortals, began in February 2009.
Dragonlance consists of 6 total books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
