Grandes ejércitos recorren Krynn, extendiendo las sombras de maléficos reptiles por la tierra, y todas estas horribles huestes cumplen las órdenes de un hombre: Ariakas, el Emperador de Ansalon. Guerrero, mago, noble, rey... ha obtenido la gloria y el poder por encima de los cadáveres de sus enemigos y en su ascensión cuenta con la ayuda de Takhisis, su poderosa señora. Sin embargo, cuando la victoria definitiva del Mal está a punto de producirse, Ariakas deberá controlar su ambición o enfrentarse en persona a la Reina de la Oscuridad.

Emperor of Ansalon is the third book centered around the villains of The War of the Lance which is set in Dragonlance. This book is written by an excellent writer with a vast amount of experience in Dragonlance and in Forgotten Realms. The lead character is Lord Ariakas who is Takhisis’ champion who is seeking to re-enter the world of Krynn. The book is split up into two main parts that revolve around Ariakas before he becomes the leader of the Dark Queen’s army. The first section details an adventure where Ariakas tries to rescue a woman who is held prisoner by a group of ogres. Ariakas goes to rescue this woman from the ogre and ends up killing her at her request. It is then revealed that the woman is a test by Takhisis to make sure Ariakas will obey without question.
