Introduction

It is always a pleasure to work on a new DRAGONLANCE anthology

for many reasons. We have a chance to read and edit interesting and

entertaining stories, and we have the fun of working with such talented

authors as we have represented in Heroes and Fools. Some of these

authors are old friends, others are new to DRAGONLANCE. All have

done an exceptional job in this collection of stories.

The Fifth Age has been seen as a dark and mysterious age, wherein the

gods have departed and gigantic dragons rule the world. Heroes arise to

try to bring light back to the world, but, as we find in some of these

stories, the fools have their place too, for is laughter really just another

kind of magic? Perhaps it is the best kind.

Our first story is by an author well-known to DRAGONLANCE fans,

Janet Pack. She brings back her wonderful Solamnic knight and his kender

companion to deal with a fearsome monster in Boojum, Boojum.

Tree of Life is by an author new to anthologies but not to those who

enjoy playing the DRAGONLANCE role-playing game. Miranda Horner

tells the touching story of a dryad s efforts to save her dying tree.

Songsayer by Giles Custer and Todd Fahnestock brings us the story

of a young bard in search of a hero. What he finds isn t exactly what he

expects.

Gnomebody

by Jeff Grubb is a gnome story. There, you ve been

warned!

The Road Home by Nancy Berberick, another author well-known to

DRAGONLANCE readers, is a chilling tale of murder and revenge.

Paul Thompson, best known for his work on the Elven Nations Trilogy,

brings us a story of a would-be knight endeavoring to trap a daring bandit

in Noblesse Oblige.

Much Ado About Magic is by an author new to DRAGONLANCE,
