Wow -- I used to love the Dragonlance books. I just read the wikipedia article for the first which contains this masterpiece of overexplaining:

"The title Dragons of Autumn Twilight follows a pattern with the other novels in the series, Dragons of Winter Night and Dragons of Spring Dawning, as they all start with Dragons, followed the names of the seasons, Autumn, Winter, and Spring, as well as a series of time, Twilight, Night, and Dawning."
