A friendship takes shape in a world wary of magic

Set in Krynn, this opening volume of a new Dragonlance trilogy turns to the early lives of Magius and Huma, before their place in Solamnic history is secured. Magius is born with a rare magical gift in Solamnia, where mages are distrusted and barred from knighthood; Huma, a young man training to become a knight, becomes his steadfast friend. Their bond forms under pressure from a society that treats magic as dishonorable, while the larger conflict with the Queen of Darkness remains far in the future. The setup links a personal story of loyalty and persecution to the legendary history of the Dragonlance world.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Dragonlance fans interested in an earlier chapter of Solamnic history
  • Fantasy readers drawn to stories of unlikely friendship
  • Readers interested in conflicts between social institutions and people who fall outside their rules

Book overview

The first volume of a new epic trilogy set in the world of Krynn, written by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman, the creators of Dragonlance.

Vinus Solamnus wrote: The practice of magic is secretive, inherently deceitful, and dishonorable. Those who practice magic are forbidden to enter the knighthood, nor should they be connected to the knighthood in any way.

The boy with a rare gift for magic was born in Solamnia, a nation that despised and distrusted mages. His father tried to beat the magic out of him. The knights threatened him with imprisonment and exile. He endured tragedy and heartbreak. Yet he persisted with his magic, for the sake of the magic.

One friend stood by him when others persecuted him, a young man who was studying for the knighthood. No one could understand this unlikely friendship.

The knight was Huma. The boy took the name, Magius. The two would one day become famous in Solamnic history, fighting together to defeat the Queen of Darkness.

But that future is distant, far down the River of Time.

For now, this is the story of an unlikely friendship that would one day change the world.
