The Soulforge

Discover the early history of Raistlin Majere—one of Dragonlance’s most complicated yet beloved characters—in this prequel to the wildly popular Dragonlance Chronicles and Legends series.

A mage’s soul is forged in the crucible of magic.
 
Raistlin Majere is six years old when he meets an archmage who enrolls him in a school for the study of magic. Weak and frail, and tormented by jealousy and inadequacy compared to his twin brother Caramon, the gifted boy begins to forge his wizarding skills. But shadows are darkening over Raistlin even as the same shadows lengthen over all of Ansalon.
 
As Raistlin’s wizarding apprenticeship draws nearer to the end, he must first take the Dread Test in the Tower of High Sorcery. It will change his life forever.
 
The Soulforge is the first of two novels in The Raistlin Chronicles series, followed by Brothers in Arms.
