First off, this is VERY different from all the previous Dragonlance books I have read, and when I say different, I mean DIFFERENT. The world that I once knew has been completely tuned upside down. The government has changed, the laws have changed, the factions have changed, heck, even the land itself has been changed. All of the familiar characters have been completely changed as well. Palin, for one, used to be all heart but now, he is turning into what his uncle Raistlin turned into, deceiving, angry, and hateful.
Now, everything that I just said is why most people hate the books, but I gotta say that it made me enjoy the experience even more. It opened my eyes to just how real this world is, and how everything can be changed with a few small mistakes.
So yeah. This book is awesome! And it even introduced a new favorite character to me, Mina.
Yeah it was okay. It was all over the place at the start with so many different characters that you couldn't remember who was the kender and who was the dragon. But eventually it all came together with a stunning conclusion, it just didn't seem like it was up to the standard of all the other Dragonlance books I have read. :/
This book has to be one of the best books I have ever had the pleasure of reading. It wasn't just a fantasy-adventure but it was a fantasy-adventure-mystery which made it a whole lot more entertaining. I have to admit that I didn't expect the murderer to be Boreas at all. :) Have a great day and go and buy this book RIGHT NOW!
This book was FANTASTIC! If you want to see Tasslehoff...
Be late for his wedding, ride a dragon, become friends with a woolly mammoth, be hunted down by a bounty hunter, sing sea shanties, hire a crew of gully dwarves, do a pulley job, be kidnapped by gnomes, get stuck in a huge glass jar, get transported to candy land, stop the dark queen, have dinner at an ogre's house, put out fires with water spouts or steal the dwarf queen's ring, then this book is for you!
This book was great! If you want to see Sturm...
Herd cattle, fly to the moon, become king, fight tree-men, ride giant ants, adopt a young girl, buy raisins, see ghosts, have visions, use magic, cut off someones arm, change clothes, make a girl get angry at him, reject a helpless dragon, eat plants, lead a gnome mining expedition, unbutton a knight's tunic, get tricked by a wizard, get stuck in a storm, obtain super-fast healing powers and go sailing, this is the book for you!
Dude, this book is the eleventh Dragonlance book I have read, and I have to say that it is by far my favourite. It shows the power of friendship between two cousins and their journey through their own struggles while a huge war is taking place.
The battle scene at the end was fantastic! It felt like I was there!
I was sad to see most of the original companions go, really sad actually, but the the new characters are staring to grow on me.
I highly recommend this book, but make sure you read the 2 original trilogies and the Second Generation first!
Est Sularus oth Mithas!
