About Amber and Ashes
The first book in the Dark Disciple series: With the War of Souls now over, Mina aids the seductive God of Death in his quest for power

Standing at a tomb where she has buried her Dark Queen, warrior-woman Mina believes her life is at an end. Her belief is confirmed when she sees Chemosh, God of Death, come to claim her. But Chemosh does not want Mina’s death—he wants her faith.

Mina is immediately attracted to the handsome and darkly charming god, who has ambitious plans to become the ruler of the Pantheon of Evil. She joins his cause and begins to entice followers to do the same—followers who are young, strong, and soon devoted to their god’s designs. Her commitment endears her to Chemosh, stirring up feelings he never thought he'd have for a mortal woman.

Meanwhile, the brother of a monk of Majere falls victim to Mina’s seduction and becomes one of the vampiric followers of Chemosh. Appalled by the crimes his brother commits, the monk abandons his faith and pledges himself to the evil goddess of the sea, Zeboim, who has her own reasons for wanting to thwart the God of Death. Accompanied by a kender who can talk to the dead, the monk starts upon a dark path to try to find a way to stop Mina and her disciples.

Review
Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. It is Misham, Frostkolt 9th, my name is Adam and today I am going to give you my Spoiler review of Amber and Ashes. I will be spoiling the story, so if you don’t want to know it, stop watching now! I would like to take a moment and thank the members of this YouTube channel, and invite you to consider becoming a member by visiting the link in the description below. You can even pick up Dragonlance gaming materials using my affiliate link. This is my perspective only, and if you have any thoughts or disagree with mine, I invite you to share them in YouTube chat or in the comments below.

Book One picks up with Mina and Galdar in the hidden tomb of Takhisis. They have stayed there several months. Mina was afraid others would find the tomb and make light of the body, even steal jewelry or artifacts and desecrate the tomb. In truth, the gods have hidden the mountain and Galdar is being reminded by Sargonnas of his bargain for his life. Galdar is unsuccessful at getting Mina to leave and when a figure approaches from the distance, he moves to intercept it. It is in fact Chemosh, God of the Undead who is looking for a youthful follower to draw in youthful worshippers. He has chosen Mina, knowing that she must have something that drew Takhisis to her, that he could use or exploit. Chemosh throws Galdar as far as Silvanesti where he is met by a party searching for him, sent by Sargonnas. Galdar is to be the liaison between the minotaur and human nations.

This is where the book differs from every other Dragonlance novel, in a really good way. Chemosh seduces Mina, and by the end of Book One, actually has feelings for her! There is more sex in the first book than there was in any of the other trilogies. I, for one, welcome it. He reveals Mina’s hidden self. Since she was washed up on the shores of the Citadel of Light, she had no memory of her past life. Then she worshiped Goldmoon, and was drawn away by Takhisis and worshipped her. Chemosh tells her to know herself, and think for herself. He doesn’t want a mindless follower, he wants an empowered High Priestess. Because of that, and his seduction, she agrees to worship him. In the Age of Mortals, the gods need followers, but the mortals don't need the gods. They have mysticism and sorcery, seperate from the gods, so the gods must be enticing and strategic with their influence...
