This review is from: The Soulforge: The Raistlin Chronicles, Volume One (Mass Market Paperback)

This is the first book I have ever read in the Dragonlance series and it has whetted my taste for more. The characters in this story were wonderfully fleshed out and there were elements of action, adventure, romance and intrigue enough to satisfy the tastes of any reader. A thoroughly enjoyable and captivating story.

This review is from: The Soulforge: The Raistlin Chronicles, Volume One (Mass Market Paperback)

When I first saw The Soulforge on the shelf at the bookstore..I was a bit skeptical.I read the Chronicles,Legends,The Second Generation,Dragons of Summer Flame,and the War of Souls trilogy,with a few other side books,and I was fascinated with the character Raistlin.I was extremely curious at the hints in the other books referring to his past...but then again I didn`t want him to be messed up.So I waited a little while to read it.I finally caved,and bought the book..read it...and wow!I was amazed.The book is a great book,and because of it,I`m an even bigger fan of Raistlin than I was before.It`s a great book,as well as it`s sequel Brothers in Arms.I personally recommend these books to any Dragonlance fan.They are just great books.I am not going to say anything about what goes on in the book...I don`t want to spoil anything! Good luck to you fellow Dragonlance fans! (great books!)
