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 final volume in the Dwarven Nations trilogy reveals the origin story of Derkin, King of Living Stone—the legendary dwarven leader
Despite the stubborn courage of dwarven warriors, the protracted Wilderness War ends as a no-win. The Swordsheath Scroll is signed, and Thorbardin shows its support of the open-minded Qualinesti elves by joining in the construction of Pax Tharkas, a magnificent fortress and a symbol of peace.
Meanwhile, the Mountain Dwarves await the coming of a king who will restore them to their former glory. When a new leader emerges from their midst, it seems the prophecy has been fulfilled and a victory over the Ergothians is no longer a futile hope. He is Derkin, the King of Living Stone—a hero whose bravery and wisdom will be written in the dwarven annals and whose name will become the “throne name” of all future dwarven kings.
