Product Description

The most famous and legendary kender of them all finally takes (or borrows) center stage!

When Wanderlust overcomes young Trapspringer Fargo, his insatiable drive for adventure propels him along a route that only a kender could map. With curiosity as his only guide, he sets out across Ansalon and unknowingly crosses paths with a pair of corrupt gully dwarves and a misplaced evil fiend (Oops!). The result is not only the inevitable madness and mayhem, but also a chance for the diminutive Trapspringer to save all of Krynn from a catastrophie of Takhisian proportions.

4.0 out of 5 stars One of the funniest books I have ever Read!, Jul 15 2002
If your a kender fan you should definately go out and grab this book. Uncle Trapspringer makes for a great story. Some people are complaining that he's not like most kender, which is a relief, it's nice to see some originality here. Also people have been complaining about the fact that he did not live up to the stories that Tasslehoff told of him. Well Tas like most kender EXAGERATES! Of course he isn't quite as legendary as Tas's tales said he was, they were kender tales. All in all this has the whole package, good story, some gullu dwarves (a little bit more intelligent than the norm, but like before it's nice to see some change.

Over come by wanderlust (like all kender) Trapspringer ends up traversing Krynn, falling into company with a couple of gully dwarves and an evil fiend. The evil fiend is great, it'll keep you rolling with laughter.

So give the book a chance, get it fom the library id you can. You'll probly like it more than you would have thought!

5.0 out of 5 stars My all time favorite Dragonlance book, Jun 28 2002
By "lazey_winde" (Near a Computer, picking up an interesting mouse *Click*) - See all my reviews
I LOVED this book, most of the Dragonlance books I either just like or couldn't care less for but I really loved this one. I found the characters were well developed and felt like I knew them- the 'good guys' at least- the 'baddies' were pretty weak, physically too. Kinda annoying how easily they beat the bad guys in every fight while not even getting injured.
But other than that it was real funny, the plot twists and turns like a kender's rambling, keeps you turning pages. And there is very little to do about the gods (I'm not crazy about polytheism) and no sexual content.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is hilarious!, Jul 20 2001
This book is a fine addition to the Dragonlance collection accomodating the humorous side of the series. Kenders and Gull Dwarves, Magic Users of good and evil alignment, and all in a very well written language and a wonderful tale.

I think many people would enjoy this book as I did, I just couldnt stop laughing :)

And if you do read the book, remember the following line: "Him dead. Make good tale that." Thats the base sentence of the book :P Hope you'll all enjoy this book, and laugh as much as I did,

R.G.L.D.

3.0 out of 5 stars Terribly written and does not reflect a true kender.
The kender in this story seemed to be very dry and serious. They hardly expressed the carefree attitude the kenders are known for. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars funny little kender story
I expected a collection of short stories but got a single long story, a good one. It is funny, does not take itself too seriously and you never know who is chasing whom. Read more
