The Lost Gods trilogy is an unusual entry in the Forgotten Realms line because it crosses over between two of TSR’s major campaign settings. Published in 1997, the three books share a loose thematic connection about gods who have been lost or divided, but each is its own story with a different author or pair of authors.

Finder’s Bane by Kate Novak and Jeff Grubb follows Joel, a priest of the newly ascended god Finder Wyvernspur, as he investigates threats to his deity. This book picks up story threads from Novak and Grubb’s earlier Finder’s Stone trilogy. Fistandantilus Reborn by Douglas Niles takes place in the Dragonlance setting and deals with a powerful mage’s attempt at resurrection. Tymora’s Luck, again by Novak and Grubb, ties the trilogy together with a plot in which a mysterious power attempts to merge the twin goddesses Tymora (Lady Luck) and Beshaba (Lady Doom) back into their original form, Tyche. Joel returns as the protagonist, traveling across the Forgotten Realms, Dragonlance, and the Outer Planes to prevent the merger.
