Synopsis

Aoth Fezim and the Brotherhood of the Griffon, having rescued Tchazzar, the lost king of Chessenta and a formidable red dragon, are rewarded with a contract to aid in his war against a powerful dracolich. But the more Aoth sees of the war, the more he suspects that the Brotherhood may be a pawn in a cutthroat draconic game that puts whole kingdoms at risk, played for stakes of gold and blood; and the more he sees it play out, the more he realises that if he wants the Realms to remain free, he will have to become a player in this most dangerous of games himself. The third Brotherhood of the Griffon novel by Richard Lee Byers.

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.
