Summary: Read this to your kids for bedtime, not your own enjoyment.
Review: Admittedly, this series did help quite a bit to bring fantasy fiction into the mainstream. But, that is about all it accomplishes. This series is full of the cockie-cutter stereotypes that most fantasy fiction is founded upon. The authors' grasp of their own details is shaky at best. It is rather obvious that Margret Weis & Tracy Hickman had very little practical knowledge about historically accurate medieval times. The characters sleep in their armor, even in the dead of winter? I must also admit that TSR novels are largely what I was weaned on as a young reader. But, to continue the medaphor, one will find that mother's milk tastes increasingly sour as one ages. Has the milk changed? No. The drinker has only gained a more refined pallatte.

Summary: D'ont underestimate it!
Review: I thought this book would be boring and dumb no original ideas. This was the BIGGEST underestimation I have ever made on a fantasy book it turned out to be one of the most gripping and amazing books I have ever read.

Review: Dragons of Autumn Twilight is about a half-elf , a kender, a dwarf, a human knight, a human warior and his tiwn brother is a Mage(my favorite for ambition and sacrifices for his one true love), two barbarians, and an elven princess are all brought together by the working of a god to stop a war that is about to come, so this adventurers make sacrifices for the good of the world and sucede in banning the evil goddess for the world once again. This must be read by all DL fan

Summary: A fantasy novel reflecting real life.
Review: Does your lip curl at the mere mention of anything that has the remotest connection to Dungeons and Dragons? Good. Why play the game and risk getting trapped inside never-ending mazes of boredom when you can simply turn a page and let Margaret and Tracy share their already-acclaimed adventures with you? When you play a role, it's only the mind you already know revealed to you. Rather, get inside someone else's mind. You'll want to more often. Just page through the book and find one of Michael's poems. Take one moment to skim it. It would speak for itself much better than I could. The enjoyment you obtain from reading the first book of this series will persuade you to create more time for you to read the next ones. And then you probably won't have the time to play D&D, much less the inclination

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: FreThe begining of my favorite fantasy series ever
Review: This book blew me away the first time I read it, about 3 years ago. The authors Weis and Hickman are incredible writers and give people a bond to thier characters. Both myself and all my friends who have read this book feel this way. No book I read before or since has even come close to the perfection of this book, exept the other 3 books of the series. For those of you you enjoy fantasy greatly and have or even have not played TSR's role playing game Dragonlance I recomend this book and the rest of this 4 book series. The other 3 books Dragons of The Winter Night, Dragons of the Spring Dawning, and Dragons of the Summer Flame(which I believe passed Dragons of the Autumn Twilight) are incredible, of course before reading Dragons of the Summer Flame you should read the "Legends" trilogy(also by Weis and Hickman). All in all probably my second favorite book of all time. Second only to Dragons of the Summer Flame. Even the titles of the first 3 books show the decent into the darkness of evil, then the return of the light.(Twilight-Night-Dawning)

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Exciting,wonderful.....beautifully written!
Review: This book grabbed a hold on me from the first page and never let me go! I bought this book merely because it was written by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman. I had bought the last three (Dragons of winter night,Dragons of spring dawning, and Dragons of summer flame) first, and read them , I loved them, and not reading the first one, I didn't understand some of the other books. So finially I found Dragons of autumn twilight, and bought it. Now I have quite a few of the "Dragonlance" books and hope to be brought back to Krynn again and again

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Dragons of Autum twilight is a great book for young readers
Review: I recomend that all fantasy lovers should read this book. Espicially 5th through 8th graders even though it is a good book for all ages over 10. It features a group of companions including a happy-go-lucky kender,a grumbling dwarf,a weird mage,two babarians(male and female),a proud and loyal knight,a giantman who is very protective of his mage brother who is very weak,and a half-elf who is their leader. This book will take you a the wildest, funniest, fantasy journey of your life

Rating: 5 stars
