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.
Shrouded in ice, the stronghold of the ogres has stood for eons as an impregnable bastion of the Icereach. But now Strongwind Whalebone, king of the Highlanders, has been imprisoned in the ogre fortress. Outside its walls, a band of his compatriots plots his rescue. Within the fortress, ogre king Grimwar Bane faces royal treachery and desperate revolt.
It is time for the ogre king to decide if the greater threat lies outside Winterheim—or within.
In the third book of his epic trilogy, Douglas Niles weaves a tapestry of magic and adventure into a climax that will affect the destiny of all those who dwell in the cold land of the Icereach.
