Dragonlance is a shared-world fantasy setting created by Tracy Hickman and Laura Hickman and developed with Margaret Weis for TSR/Wizards of the Coast, launched alongside the original Dungeons & Dragons game modules in 1984.
Set on the world of Krynn, it spans dozens of interlocking novel trilogies, story collections and campaign sourcebooks by many authors — beginning with the Chronicles and Legends trilogies by Weis and Hickman and continuing through Preludes, the Meetings Sextet, the Elven Nations and Barbarians trilogies, the War of Souls, and many later series — following the Heroes of the Lance, the Companions, and the many other characters who shape the fate of Krynn.

Frequently asked questions
What is the correct reading order for the Dragonlance: The Age of Mortals series?
The Age of Mortals series is a continuation of the broader Dragonlance saga. While some books can be read independently, for the full narrative experience, it is generally recommended to read the main Chronicles and Legends trilogies first, as they establish the world and characters that evolve in the Age of Mortals.
Are there other Dragonlance series connected to The Age of Mortals?
The Age of Mortals is a significant era within the expansive Dragonlance universe. It directly follows events depicted in earlier core series like the Dragonlance Chronicles and Dragonlance Legends, and its narrative threads connect to numerous other spin-off series and standalone novels set in Krynn.
Is there a Dragonlance film or TV adaptation?
There is an animated film adaptation of the first book in the Dragonlance Chronicles, which precedes the Age of Mortals storyline. However, there is no direct film or TV adaptation specifically covering the Age of Mortals series itself.
