Reading Orders

Publication Date

This lists the novels in order by their publication dates. This does mix up series as many new series were started while old ones were still finishing up. If a book was released more than once, or in hardcover and paperback, I placed it where it originally came out and did not include the other editions.
This will give you the best picture of how Dragonlance has evolved over the years.
