If you finished the Second Generation and Dragons of a Summer Flame
you could start either the Dragons of a New Age trilogy, it's not so
tied up in the former book as to require a re-read through them or
just do like me and skip over the 5th age travesty and start the War
of Souls trilogy and the Dark Disciple books. If you haven't read 2nd
Gen and DoaSF you might want to recap on some of the things that
happened in tha first two series but it's not a "must", you'll get a
bunch of new characters and events to keep you occupied. Also the The
Raistlin Chronicles don't require any prehistory whereas they're set
before Chronicles. I would however strongly recommend re-reading the
Chronicles at least befor going on to the Lost Chronicles.
Anyway, I haven't really read any more DL books so that's all I can
advise you on :-)
Kindest regards,
Doddi
