- The Maztica Trilogy is a set of 3 fantasy novels set in the Dungeons & Dragons world of Forgotten Realms. The series were written by Douglas Niles, and the books are:
* Ironhelm (1990)
* Viperhand (1990)
* Feathered Dragon (1991) The books are essentially a translation of the Spanish conquest of what is now Mexico in the 16th Century to the Forgotten Realms world. The name 'Maztica' is itself a portmanteau of "Maya" and "Aztec", the two major stone-age civilizations of Central America. The principal difference is the existence of magic in the D&D fantasy world.

The name 'Maztica' is itself a portmanteau of "Maya" and "Aztec", the two major stone-age civilizations of Central America. The plot of the trilogy closely follows real-life events. The main character, Cordell, is similar in name to real-life conquistador Hernan Cortes. The states of Maztica resemble the Aztecs and other mesoamericans in that
* they have Stone Age technology
* they worship many gods and offer human sacrifices
* they build large stone pyramids
* there is a warrior class with particular uniforms
* there is one powerful civilisation dominating the continent, from which some tribes are independent and others subjugated The principal difference is the existence of magic in the D&D fantasy world.
