Collector's Notes
The Crossroads books were written as stand-alone journeys through different parts of Krynn, giving readers a wider look at the Dragonlance world beyond its best-known central characters.
This group suits a Dragonlance reader, tabletop fantasy fan, or collector working toward a fuller Crossroads series.
The four-book run covers volumes two through five of the series, with only the opening title, The Clandestine Circle, absent from the group.
They are readable copies with the shelf wear of books that have already spent time in someone else's fantasy world.
