Summary: WOW! MUST HAVE NEXT BOOK!
Review: I <<JUST>> finished Will of the Wander! It's sooo awesome I can't wait to go get the next book. Tracy Hickman and Margret Weiss are my absolute favorite authors and once again they redeem my following by creating more wonderful books!

Summary: The only disappointing Weis & Hickman book I've ever read
Review: I am an avid Weis & Hickman fan starting with Dragonlance Chronicles. I have read every piece of their work I have been able to find. This is the first series I have found trully boring. Unreadable would be a bit extreme but not far off. You've heard people say a thousand times "I couldn't put it down" this is the only time I've said "I couldn't pick it up" to any of their books.

Summary: good
Review: I found this book to be very good but very slow at the same time. Being the first book in a series, it tended to have a lot of character development. Although it picks up towards the end it isn't quite up to the same level as some of the authors other works i.e...Dragonlanc Chronicles. The plot involves several main characters who all have serious flaws in their very human personalities. While i appreciated this more real envisionment of the proposed "heroes" it also seemed to repel my interest being that there are no particularly likeable characters. The palet for this story is the background of a hostile desert with nomadic camel riding tribes and scimitars. If you make your way through this volume i am sure that the next will satiate you.

Summary: This book is excellent!
Review: I just finished this book last night and now I am half way through the next book in the Rose of the Prophet series entitled "Paladin of the night" and they are both really excellent!

Summary: page turner once you get into it
Review: i read this book with scepticism, a friend strongly recommended it. once i get started, i was hooked and was not able to put down the book until i was satisfied that i can bear to leave it till tomorrow. in short, great book (by the way, i had also read the vol 2 and vol 3)

Summary: yawn
Review: I suppose this book is okay once you get into it, but it does drag more than I would like. I am however a harsh critic.

Summary: Should be more well known
Review: I'm somewhat baffled as to why this series is not as popular or well known as some of Weis and Hickman's other works. I read this 12 years ago and I still remember it. I remember taking 3 days just to search the entire metropolitan library system to locate a copy of the second book in the series and reading it all the way back home. I consider it tied with Dragonlance Legends (Time of the Twins, War of the Twins, and Test of the Twins) as my favorite Weis and Hickman work, a bit better than Dragonlance Chronicles, and far far superior to other Weis and Hickman stuff like Darksword and Starshield (haven't read Deathgate). To further give an idea of my taste, I'd like to state that I thoroughly enjoy Feist's Riftwar and Jordan's Wheel of Time, dislike Feist's Serpentwar and Tolkien's Lord of the Rings, and find Eddings' works all right if a bit repetitive. The Rose of the Prophet trilogy compares favorably with Feist's and Jordan's, being a little bit more sophisticated than Feist's and much more compact and to the point than Jordan's. Maybe too compact. The final book Prophet of Akhran should have been longer. While certainly not the most contemplative and profound of works (but then again that's not what I read a fantasy for anyway) the interaction of gods, their supernatural minions, and their followers in Rose of the Prophet is riveting and not without imagination. A darn good ripping yarn and edge of your seat soap opera. (...)

Summary: What garbage
Review: I'm surprised this book has even a small following. My suspicion is that the 5-star reviews were submitted by the author's friends in an attempt to buff up the average. Regardless, this book represents another bland attempt, like so many, at finding a TOLKIEN-like following. Clearly, this book is not in the same league as "The Lord of the Rings." Pass on it.

Summary: Will of the Wanderer
Review: In This book Weis and Hickman live up to their title as the masters of modern fantisy. Set in a harsh desert enviroment, populated with feirce Tribal nomads and non steriotypical djin. The gods are at war and it is up to a few unlikely mortals and their immortal servants to restore the balance between good and evil. The character development is first class and you will find yourself wanting to return to this world again and again. It's a shame this series is often overshadowed by Weis and Hichman's better known works such as Dragonlance and Death gate. This series is every bit as good as those if not better. Amust read.
