It's a trilogy. Spellfire, Crown of Fire, Hand of Fire.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

It is a trilogy that is worth your time reading it, trust me.

We have fostered trust, recruited loyalty, and gathered the faithful. We have trained thousands. Our legions can cover the land, fill the sky and travel through the darkness. We can hunt any and all that would deny our heritage. Now is our time, now is the time of the Dark Reign(Rain) of the Empire of Shadows.

Hehe, forgot that since I have the originals before it was repacked into what it's called now. :)

Ditto. Though I think my copy of Spellfire is the second one. I know I replaced it, and there's at least one part that I recall that doesn't seem to be in the copy I have now.

If I remember correctly, the new Spellfire has new passages in it, whereas Crown of Fire stayed the same and Hand of fire was new.

Well, it was, originally. It was years later that TSR asked Ed to continue Shandril's tale.

Ed provided some insight into the conclusion of Shandril's saga here:- http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=books/fr/shandril
