The Covenant of the Forge

Dragonlance: Dwarven Nations Trilogy: Book 1

Dan Parkinson

An old dwarven chieftain, Colin Stonetooth, leads a tribe of Hylar in a migration across Ansalon, pursuing a vision of a new home. Hordes of dangerous outsiders, fleeing the Dragon Wars, are sweeping the countryside. Evil magic, strange knights, precociuos kender, too, abound.

In the Kharolis Mountains, in Kal Thaz, the Hylar come upon squabbling dwarven clans and knit them into the new nation of Thorbardin. But a Theiwar assassin precipitates a civil war, a curse is fulfilled, and a child is born destined to be the Father of Kings.

Hammer and Axe

Dragonlance: Dwarven Nations Trilogy: Book 2

Dan Parkinson

The humans of Ergoth continue to encroach upon Thorbardin, but the worst threat to the dwarven fortress comes from a mysterious fog-beast and a covetous wizard. A Cobar, a kender, and a giant raptor add to the confusion as the dwarves are faced with wizards who command not only the forces of magic but thousands of mercenaries as well. And, unknown to the dwarves who valiantly fight the invaders, the beast has already claimed Thorbardin as it's own.

The Swordsheath Scroll

Dragonlance: Dwarven Nations Trilogy: Book 3

Dan Parkinson

Despite the stubborn courage of dwarven warriors, the protracted Wilderness War ends as a no-win. The Swordsheath Scroll is signed, and Thorbadin shows its support of the open-minded Qualinesti elves by joining in the construction of magnificent Pax Tharkas.

A new leader emerges from their midst, Derkin, the King of Living Stone, whose bravery and wisdom is written in dwarven annals, and whose name becomes the "throne name" of all future dwarven kings.

Author Dan Parkinson also wrote The Covenant of the Forge and Hammer and Axe, the first two books in the best-selling Dwarven Nations trilogy of the DRAGONLANCE saga.
