Product Description

Product Description

Betrayal is the second volume in the Dhamon Saga. This is Jean Rabe's second hardcover novel featuring characters from the bestselling Dragons of a New Age trilogy.

All our hero wants is a cure for the painful dragon scale embedded in his leg. All his motley companions want are adventure and riches. Everywhere they go, minions of evil shadow them. Although he has sworn off heroism, our hero can't escape the horrors convulsing Krynn-or the betrayal that stalks him.

4.0 out of 5 stars A step in the right direction.., July 30 2002
By D. Pachal (WA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Jean Rabe is probably one the most notorius writers in the Dragonlance world. People don't seem to like what her books tackled in her Dragons of a New Age trilogy. I for one am a fan of Rabe. I was immensly pleased with her DoNA books and looked forward to reading her Dhamon saga as soon as I had time.

This book starts where "Downfall" left off. Other than a short cameo in the beginning and end of the book by Rig and Fiona, the story mostly settles around Dhamon, Maldred, Riki, and an interesting draconian. Dhamon and Maldred are searching for a treasure, that when found, will hopefully help Dhamon find a cure for the cursed dragon scale in his leg.

"Betrayal" is full of enough adventure, excitement, backstabbing, and intrigue to keep any Dragonlance reader hooked. Rabe has really grown as a writer since her DoNA books. They just keep getting better. There are plenty of twists in this book to keep you guessing the whole time. The ending is a shocker and will easily keep you thinking about it until long after you are done, and will keep you begging for more. If you are a fan of Dragonlance, this book is a must.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smashing well-paced story Rabe rocks!, Jun 25 2001
Rabe gets too much flack from Dragonlance fans. Many automatically brand her books with the mark of the Beast simply because she is not Weis nor Hickman.

Instead she gives us a good RABE book, her own style. With characters that are risky to write and even harder to pull off, and she does it.

The book takes us on many adventures throughout the realms of the evil Dragoness Onysablet, called Sable by we mere mortals.

We see the suffering of humans becoming monstrous spawn, repitilian slaves of the Overlord. We see towns and characters put to the crucible and sword and feel their suffering.

Rabe's writing grows a lot. Her plot pacing is not fast but subtle. She uses wording that is differnt and unique.

I must say that I found this book to be a great supplement to the War of Soul in that it fleshes out Krynn for me ....It helps me see the Fifth Age through the eyes of people other than the Heroes of The Lance... Rabe's books stand out as being every bit as strong, but different than Weiss and Hickman!

Heartily Recommended.

I have to admit that I like surprises, and there were plenty in this book. I felt sorry for some of the characters, and angry at others. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars horrid
Keep away. Buy at your own risk. It wasn't even as good as the Jean Rabe's past DL novels, which weren't all that great to begin with. Read more
