Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Dragons of Chaos is just like the other anthologies.
Review: Dragons of Chaos is the same as the other anthologies in the fact that some stories are great and others are truly terrible. This collection of short stories by various authors of the Dragonlance saga has some very good stories. Knaak's Son of Huma is great and so is the Dragon's Eye. But there are others that are simply boring and make you say "I wish I skipped that one." And most of the stories take place either after or before the Chaos war, not during it. But I have to say that Roger Moore's "There is Another Shore..." is probably the best story. It tells of two men who are whisked into a parallel dimension where the Cataclysm never happened! This was an awesome story and should have been a book. It deserves 5 stars itself. So pick up this anthology if just to read Moore's great short story.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hmm
Review: For a newcomer to Krynn and its world of Dragonlancers, THE DRAGONS OF CHAOS was a very interesting book to read. Stories are clear, concise, and both fun to read (Dragonfear) and almost sad (Son of Huma). Most likely the Krynn aficionado will be more appreciative of the finer nuances of THE DRAGONS OF CHAOS but I found it a delight to read.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The ongoing battle continues...
Review: I really like the way this series is going, and The Dragons of Chaos is no exception. There is lots of action, character development, twists in the plot, and finishing the book makes you anxiously wanting the next book of the series to come out.

Weis and Hickman give us just enough information on certain characters and events to get your mind thinking on what could happen - and then when it finally happens, it's very different than what you expected.

I have found Weis and Hickman to be consistently excellent writers, and I've read most of their other books. I felt it would be hard to come close to the success of their first Dragons series, but with such an excellent storyline, it will be close.

I definately suggest reading this anthology. What are you waiting for? Get it!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Hmm
Review: I think Moore's story was strange, but good. It leaves you confused, and lost and wondering. Probably the worst stories were the Eyes of Chaos, the Noble Folly, and Lessons of the Land. The plots were boring.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: It was exciting to find out some of the Dragonlace History.
Review: The short stories in this book were very entertaining. They showed some of the things that I wanted to know after reading the chronicles and the legends. If anyone reads Dragonlance that wants to E-mail me go for it!!
