Did You Know?

“Heart of Goldmoon,” by Laura Hickman and Kate Novak (the wives of Dragonlance lead designers Tracy Hickman and Jeff Grubb, respectively), is the longest story in this collection. It was originally going to be published as a standalone adventure gamebook, but this was canceled for some reason and retooled as a novella for publication in this collection.

“Raistlin’s Daughter” was later republished in The Second Generation.

“Silver and Steel” falls well outside the timespan of the rest of the stories. Reaching into Krynn’s ancient past, it takes place in the year 1018 PC; it was the first retelling of the story of the legendary knight, Huma. Five months later, this subject matter was tackled yet again, in the very next Dragonlance novel to be published: The Legend of Huma.

Another story in this collection, “A Painter’s Vision,” also extends outside the main timeframe of the book. It follows the story of a woman from youth to old age. Fans estimate the story ends in the year 404 AC (56 SC), making it chronologically the last story of all Dragonlance!
