   Filled with heroes and heroines and spanning locales of exotic adventure in a magic-forged world, the Dragonships of Vindras series fully illustrates the mastery of world-building and storytelling that has made Weis and Hickman into the bestselling fantasy co-authors of all time. In Bones of the Dragon, Skylan Ivorson is a sea-raider of the Vindras and eventually becomes the Chief of Chiefs of all Vindras clans, an honor he truly feels he deserves as one who has been blessed by Skoval, the god of war. But sometimes a blessing is a curse in disguise. Skoval and the other ancient gods are under siege from a new generation of gods who are challenging them for the powers of creation… and the only way to stop these brash interlopers lies within the mysterious and hidden Five Bones of the Vektan Dragons. It will be up to the Vindras people, as the dragon-goddess's champions, to undertake the quest to recover all Five. The fate of the Old Gods and the Vindras rests on their recovery--for this is not only a quest to save the world. It is also a quest for redemption. Welcome to the World of Dragonships!

   The action-packed second book in the Dragonships series from bestselling authors Weis and Hickman The Vindrasi gods have a traitor in their midst. Sund, God of Stone, is a cold and calculating god who rules over history and time, thought and contemplation. When the Gods of Raj and the Gods of the New Dawn defeated the Old Gods in battle, Sund gave the matter careful thought and came to believe that his days were numbered. He switched sides, going over to the Gods of the New Dawn. As proof of his good faith, he gave the priests of the god Aelon the gift of a sacred Vektia spiritbone, which is now residing in the Temple of the New Dawn in the city of Sinaria, capital of Oran. Sund told the priests that the dragon to whom this spiritbone belongs is extremely powerful, for the Vektia dragons were forged at the creation of the world and represent the foundation of creation. Without these dragons, the new god, Aelon, will not be able to fully seize control over the world. In the land of the mortals, Skylan Ivorson and the Vindrasi clan are pulled into this duplicity as they embark on a mission to reclaim the bones in an effort to save their dying gods. They must unravel an ever-expanding web of deceit and foul play if they hope to survive.

   Skylan Ivorson is het door de goden gekozen opperstamhoofd van alle Vindrasi-stammen. De goden waaraan hij en zijn stamgenoten hun kracht ontlenen worden ernstig bedreigd door een nieuwe generatie goden. De enige mogelijkheid om de aanstormende nieuwe grootmacht het hoofd te bieden, is een geheim dat verborgen is in de Vijf Beenderen van de Vektia-draak, die eeuwen geleden spoorloos verdween. Nu, als de nieuwe generatie goden een reusachtig en schier onoverwinnelijk leger op de been brengt, heeft Skylan geen andere keuze dan een verbond aan te gaan met zijn gezworen vijanden. Zo gaat er een oproep uit naar de ogers, om gezamenlijk tegen de vijand op te trekken. De ironie van het lot zorgt er evenwel voor dat Skylan met een nog veel grotere bedreiging wordt geconfronteerd. Het gevolg is dat hij en zijn Vindrasi uitvaren met als bestemming de Tranenzee, om precies te zijn: het hart van het Verboden Rijk der Cyclopen. Daar hoopt Skylan het middel te vinden om een tweede verschrikkelijke oorlog te voorkomen. Maar ver onder de zeespiegel wacht een nieuwe vijand, een wezen met onvoorstelbare en voor de Vindrasi onbekende krachten...

   The climatic fourth and final novel in the Dragonships of Vindras series, Doom of the Dragon, by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. In three previous novels, Skylan Ivorson overcame obstacles that would have defeated a lesser man, rising from obscurity to become the Chief of Chiefs of the fearsome Vindrasi who sail their living dragonships far and wide to raid and plunder for the glory of the gods. However, a cruel twist of fate struck him down before he and his beloved could complete their quest for the five sacred dragonbones that would summon the great dragon Ilyrion and save their people from destruction at the hands of an evil god. But even true death is denied him, and his destiny is unfulfilled. Caught between life and death, he must lead those who journeyed with him to battle the evil god and the vast army of the god and his human emperor. Skylan must fight as he never has before to win back his life and his love, while seeking the last Spiritbone--the key to summoning the ultimate victory--before it can be snatched away by the forces of evil. With Doom of the Dragon, Weis and Hickman have crafted a pulse-pounding fantasy adventure that brings their great Dragonships of Vindras saga to a rousing, satisfying conclusion that will stir the passions of their legions of fans.
