Publication order and internal chronology are tracked as two separate orderings and are never conflated: a book's place in one says nothing about its place in the other.

  • Internal chronology, within Dragonlance: position 27 of 164: previous Red Dragon Codex (2008) · next Relics and Omens (1996)
