This page attempts to associate books with the Reigns of Valdemar royalty. It also attempts to include short stories from the anthologies, but that effort is incomplete/ongoing. Some short stories do not identify their own time period. However, this page is a helpul way to view the connections as accurately as possible. The dates are from the Official Timeline for the Heralds of Valdemar Series printed in the front of many of the books.
