Back Cover Text: Dragons.
Creatures of legend. Stories told to children.
But now dragons have returned to Krynn. The darkness of war and
destruction threatens to engulf the land.
Then hope appears -- a blue crystal staff in the hands of a beautiful
barbarian woman. The promise of hope, as fleeting as smoke upon the
autumn wind, forces a group of long-time friends into the unlikely roles
of heroes.
Knight and barbarian, warrior and half-elf, dwarf and kender and dark-souled
mage; they begin a perilous quest for --
the legendary Dragonlance.
Review:
Excellent!! Being the first Dragonlance book, it had me hooked....This
book and the rest of the Chronicles sets the foundation for the unimaginable
expansion of the Dragonlance Saga. I highly recommend this book
to anybody: those who have an interest in dragons and fantasy, and
even those who don't. You'll definitely show a new interest after
reading this book. I've read the Chronicles Trilogy about 4 or 5
times....each time was just as enjoyable as the first. Rating: 10/10.
