Can anybody tell me what other books Lord Soth plays a role in?

I've read:
Legends
Chronicles
Knight of the Black Rose & the sequel
One DL short story that featured him. . .

Where can I find more Soth?!

The only obvious one's I can think of right now are...

Lord Soth (Dragonlance Warriors, Vol. 6)

and the War of Souls Trilogy (can't remember if it's Vol 2 or 3 though, it's where Mina goes to visit him at Dargaard Keep)

Edit:

Oops, are we allowed to talk about books, if not sorry. How about those stats in the Beastiary of Krynn. hehehe

Yeah. . . how 'bout 'em.


Ummmm. . . read Lord Soth. Forgot to mention it.

So which War of Souls books is he in then?

I highly recommend the novella "True Knight" by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman from THE CATACLYSM anthology (Tales II).

He was also in the first two II Tales stories written by Weis and Hickman.

Though I don't know how this will be taken by the rest of the Dragonlance fan-base, don't forget his two Ravenloft books, Knight of the Black Rose and Specter of the Black Rose. There was also a short story about him in Tales of Ravenloft.

What happened in the Tales from Ravenloft story?

Lord Soth used the ownership of a gambling house in Sithicus to determine who would lead his army against the wild elves. The ownership of the house was determined by playing the D&D equivalent of Craps.

What's next? Lord Soth sets up a DnD equivalent of YuGiOh card competition to decide who will lead his army against the kender?

Where does he appear in the War of Souls books?

I also heard something about him being in Vanished Moon (is that a war of souls book?). Is that true? How much is he actually in these?

Dragons of a Vanished Moon is book 3 of the War of Souls trilogy. Soth is in it for one chapter.

However Brim....that one chapter is perhaps one of the most significant turns of Soth's story....so...even though its one chapter, that one chapter is fairly important to Soth fans

Sure, it's important, but also a bit disappointing... I was hoping for more.

Can I read the third book and pick up enough of the story to catch up, or will I be hopelessly lost without reading the first two books?

You will be hopelessly lost without the first two...and a lot of people are still lost without Dragons of a New Age trilogy and other early Age of Mortals books. But I think you'd be fine with just the War of Souls books.

At least Soth's tragedy was laid to rest.
