Dragonlance discussion

So I was looking for other series like this one, already found the Forgotten Realms, but does anyone know of another?

Eberron
dark sun
spelljammer
pathfinder.

I'm not sure that there are any other series with as many books but I recommend picking out your favorite authors from the series and seeing what else they have written.

I'm with Mark on his additions. I would also include reads from:

Brent Weeks
Peter Brett
R.A. Salvatore (Dark Elf series)
Weis & Hickman (The Death Gate Cycle) <---Favorite!

Forgot ravenloft.
try Katherine kerr devrry books.

and all david gemell.

Raymond E Feist's Riftwar Saga is excellent! Also try David Eddings

Which series? Chronicles? There are 150+ books now in total (maybe 200+ with young adult series books.)

Also books in the series are quite different according to the author(s) and the era that the story took place? It would be better if you are more specific.

Check out Richard Knaack books too. He wrote Kaz the Minotaur and Legend of Huma. I know he started another series. Also, Douglas Niles has written many fantasy books. The Forgotten Realms series is the closest I have found

Don't know if any of you know about this site but believe me when I tell you it's the authority on all things Dragonlance. Several of the Authors (including Margaret) post to this site and the Lexicon is an incredible source of information. So here's the link in case any of you want it: http://www.dragonlanceforums.com/foru...

the Dragonships series, also by Weis and Hickman (just finished first one) has got a very Dragonlancey vibe - well worth a read

The Shannara Chronicles... by Terry Brooks. I think there's 9 Books in the series. Does take place on earth in the far future

Agree with the comment about the Dark Elf series by Salvatore

I want to agree with a previous poster. RA Salvatore. I started with the Crystal Shard. This was the first book with the character Drizzt and I believe his first book. After that trilogy (Icewind Dale), he wrote about a younger Drizzt, but I think it's better in order of publication.

I also recommend the Guardians of the Flame series by Joel Rosenberg. It's a little grittier and not high fantasy but has great characters.

Salvatore's stuff is great for a while but it does seem to go on forever with the same characters repeating the same beats with ever decreasing returns after we get to the Sellswords trilogy (I'm at Thr Lone Drow now and am, frankly, getting serious Drizzt fatigue).

IMO the Caderly novels are his best work.

I do love the Dark Sun novels - I adored the world years ago and the novels as a bunch focus more on the characters showcasing that world rather than following the same characters throughout.
