Book two of the Lost Chronicles, Dragons of the Highlord Skies!!!
This one has lots of Kitiara in it so I--being a fan of Kit, and disgusted by others authors attempts at portraying her--am excited to see how Weis and Hickman will write this character.
The official description of the book from Amazon.com is as follows.
Book Description
The story starts in the Tower of High Sorcery in Palanthus, which is under assault by the forces of the Kingpriest. The wizards, knowing they must surrender, remove as many valuable artifacts as they can. An elven wizard named Feal-Thas takes a dragon orb to the distant land of Ice Wall. That orb is sought by the Dragon Highlord Ariakas, who assigns the task of its recovery to Kitiara Uth-Matar, half-sister of the sickly mage Raistin and his good-natured twin Caramon. Kitiara, who is rising up the ranks of the dark forces, must undertake the journey to the Ice Castle of Feal-Thas, where she will have a dramatic confrontation with Laurana, a leader of the forces of good.

Oh wee! I cant wait. I wonder if the authors will mess up and have them come face to face (I doubt that they will since they didn't meet until Dragons of Winter Night, and its not like Weis and Hickman to make big mistakes like that.)
Anyway, you can begin pre-ordering this book now online so everybody reserve those copies! I think I will try and reserve mine locally.
