The Draconic Prophecies (book series)

The Draconic Prophecies is a series of young adult fantasy novels written by various authors and set in the Eberron campaign setting for the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game. The series focuses on characters who are in some way connected to the Draconic Prophecies, a complex and ever-shifting set of prophecies inscribed on the dragonscales of Argonnessen and believed to influence events throughout Eberron.

The series explores various aspects of the Draconic Prophecies, including:

• Interpretation and Understanding: The difficulty in deciphering the prophecies and the different interpretations that can arise.
• Influence on Events: How the Prophecies shape the world and the destinies of individuals.
• Conflict and Manipulation: The forces, both benevolent and malevolent, that seek to manipulate the prophecies for their own ends.
• The Role of Dragons: The central role of dragons, especially those of Argonnessen, in guarding and interpreting the Draconic Prophecies.
• Character Development: The personal journeys of the characters as they grapple with their connection to the prophecies and the challenges it presents.

The individual novels within the series often focus on specific facets of the Prophecies and feature a diverse cast of characters from various backgrounds and cultures within Eberron. While each novel can often be read independently, overarching plot threads and recurring characters connect them, creating a broader narrative about the Draconic Prophecies and their impact on the world. The books are generally geared toward a younger audience but explore complex themes and contribute to the overall lore of the Eberron setting.
