A complete 3-book Dragonlance Taladas Trilogy paperback set by Chris Pierson, set on the far-off continent of Taladas rather than the more familiar Ansalon.
The trilogy consists of Blades of the Tiger (2005), Trail of the Black Wyrm (2006), and Shadow of the Flame (2007), following the published reading order of the series.
Together, they deliver a classic Dragonlance mix of war-scarred kingdoms, minotaurs, dark sorcery, and hard-won alliances.
