Suggested Trilogy:

The Doom Brigade The Chaos War Volume 1 By Margaret Weis & Don Perrin

Back Cover Text:
War can get a fellow killed.

The fearless draconians of the War of the Lance have retired from the field of battle to a pleasant valley in the Kharolis Mountains. Well, it would be pleasant, if it weren't for some dwarves, whose irritating feuding prevents the draconians from realizing their greatest hope--the ability to continue their doomed race.
When the dwarves discover a map leading to a fortune buried in the dwarven kingdom of Thorbardin, the draconians are swept up in a feverish race for the treasure.  Little do both sides realize that they are part of the strange and terrible destiny descending upon Krynn during the Summer of Flame.
A destiny that includes the children of Chaos...the fire dragons!

Review:
This was a really good read.  I didn't expect much out of a story about draconians, but this book changed my previous view that draconians are chaotic, drunk, dirty, somewhat stupid, and truly doomed servants of Takhisis. But given a chance, Kang and his followers proved that they can be orderly and rational.  They are, after all, the products of true dragons.  By the end of the book, I was rooting for the draconians. I especially liked Kang--the leader, and Slith--a very skilled Sivak.  And the ending is a very important one, for it does affect the future of the draconian race, and future Dragonlance books.  Rating: 8/10.
