Product Description

Book Description

But, the beast-man, scorned and hunted, knows,
Without honor there is nothing, not even death.
So, driven by the only ghosts that matter, Huma and himself, Kaz alone faces the scourge.

After the defeat of the Dark Queen and the death of Huma Dragonbane, the most famous of the Knights of Solamnia, Kaz, the renegade minotaur, wanders throught Krynn, telling the true tale of the land's most legendary hero, stalked by his enemies -- a haunted soul, an outcast, a hero. But when Kaz hears rumors of evil incidents, he returns to warn the Knights of Solamnia -- and is plunged into a dark nightmare of magic, danger and deja-vu.

5.0 out of 5 stars Kaz, Greatest Minotaur Ever, Oct 24 2003

By

This review is from: Kaz the Minotaur (Mass Market Paperback)

Kaz the Minotaur picks up where The Legend of Huma ends with Kaz as the main character. The great minotaur has supposedly been betrayed by the knighthood he has grown to respect. There is a price on his head, and he doesn't know why. In addition he is being pursued by a group of minotaurs for a dishonorable crime that he supposedly committed during the war. Being chased by many and wondering why, Kaz does the honorable thing and goes to the knighthood and makes a horrifying discovery. The minotaur finds himself thrust into feelings of dejavu and discovers a sinister plot that threatens to unravel everything that Huma strove to build. The plot is rich with great characters that become important to the reader, and the story is exciting with a superbly twisting and changing plot. Kaz must rise above the persecution and once again embrace the ideals that Huma taught him, and in doing so he becomes more than he ever imagined he could. While not quite to the level of The Legend of Huma, this book a truly a great read and offers the reader a wonderful opportunity to experience a finely crafted fantasy tale.

This review is from: Kaz the Minotaur (Mass Market Paperback)

First, I have to say that I don't normally read a lot of sci-fi fantasy but I have to say that Kaz is a great book. Descriptions of the characters are written so well that I was able to visualize this strange world of minotaurs! I would recommend this book. I also think that kids in middle school and high school would enjoy the characters and the story.

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Follow-Up to "The Legend of Huma", Aug 21 2002

Dj Toasty "Dj Toasty" (Florida) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Kaz the Minotaur (Mass Market Paperback)

I was more than impressed by this book! I have read lots of the "DL" saga, and this is by far one of the best.
In this epic, Kaz is traveling throughout krynn coping with the lost of his one human friend, Huma.

Being persued by other Minotaurs and a Ogre for "Crimes of no-honor", and now being accompanied by a kender, his journies are anything but usual.

This book is a must read for any "DL" fan, or even someone totally new to it! You need to read "The legend of huma" before this though, otherwise it is a bit confusing at times. This is a must must must read! -10 Stars
