Book Description
Sequestered in the blackness of the dreaded Tower of High Sorcery in Palanthas, surrounded by nameless creatures of evil, Raistlin Majere weaves a plan to conquer the darkness--to bring it under his control.
Crysania, a beautiful and devoted cleric of Paladine, tries to use her faith to lead Raistlin from the darkness. She is blind to his shadowed designs, and he draws her slowly into his neatly woven trap.
Made aware of Raistlin’s plan, a distraught Caramon travels back in time to the doomed city of Istar in the days before the Cataclysm. There, together with the ever-present kender Tasslehoff, Caramon will make his stand to save Raistlin’s soul.
Or so he believes.

AMAZING!!!,

This review is from: TIME OF THE TWINS VOL. 1 (Mass Market Paperback)
The Legends Trilogy- the Time of The Twins, the War of the Twins, and Test of the Twins, is the sequel to The Chronicles Trilogy- Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winter Night, and Dragons of Spring Dawning, which brings to life the ultimate battle between Good and Evil in the magical World of Krynn. The books are so incredibly well written that the reader feels that they have been transported to another plane of existence and are actually present among the characters, seeing what they see, feeling what they feel, sensing what they sense. The authors Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman have truly outdone themselves and have presented us with a masterpiece of literature the likes of which we have seen only in JRR Tolkien's work and RA Salvatore's The Dark Elf and Icewind Dale trilogies. Duty, honor, bravery, magic, dragons and heroes are all about. One should seriously start thinking about maybe turning them into movies...

This review is from: Time of the Twins: Dragonlance Legends, Volume I (Mass Market Paperback)
Well this was a very interestig read. Having finished the Chronicles Trilogy this book Time of the Twins drops you into some back history of two or even three of your favorite characters: Cameron, Raistland, and that stealing future changing kender, Tas!Very interesting and worth the time and money...well though out.

This review is from: Time of the Twins: Dragonlance Legends, Volume I (Mass Market Paperback)
Time of the Twins is the first book in the dragolance trilogy legends. It takes place two years after the war of the lance; the races in the land are coming to peace and the dragon armies are scattered, but this book really isn't about that, it's about Raistlin and Caramon, the twins who are nothing alike. There is also Tasslehoff and a new face Crysania, revered daughter of Paladine. Time of the twins, starts off rather slow and tons of information is tossed out, information which is pretty important in the story. Time of the twins is less action-adventure and more dramatic than that of the chronicles, which I enjoy way more, Time of the Twins that is. This book is also way better than anything the chronicles came out with. It's more mature, theres more character development (largely due to the fact that there are only 4 main characters instead of 8 or 9), and the actually characters are more fun to read about, than that of the chronicles. But there are some things which I didn't like, as a matter of fact, I thought were absolutly ridiculous. Such as the direction the of story, After they all went back in time, it felt like it was to slow and pointless. The whole Caramon attracted to the gladiator girl was pointless, pretty much the whole thing with Caramon in the gladiator school was pointless, other than him getting pumped up. I think the only reason why this part was in the book is because Weis and hickman needed to throw some action into this adventure or they had to have some one get captured, it's their trademark. Whatever reason was, the part was to long and nothing really can out of it, which made the book drag. All in all this book was pretty good, Raistlin was cool, caramon was very interesting, in the beginning....and the end, I guess. If you have read the chronicles already and like them, this is the next book, so have-at-it.
