5.0 out of 5 stars One of the only books to present a Knight as honorable, April 20 2004

By	"gabriel12" (London) - See all my reviews

This review is from: LEGEND OF HUMA (Mass Market Paperback)

I've read a large number the other Dragonlance books regarding knights and found them all to be sick satires because for some reason people think that it is impossible for a knight to be a man of honor. (Which I was under the impression that they were supposed to represent) Huma is a knight who manifests virtues sadly lost by most people today, so likely many will react negatively to the portrail of such a man and use words like clique, one dimensional, unrealistic and so on.
The book deptics a great man aspiring to manifest the edics of knighthood while attempting to aid his brother knights in a losing battle to the forces of darkness. In regards to that the story is very similar to most other epic type books. There is a collection of interesting other characters that put Huma in difficult moral dilema's, but Huma is what makes the book for me, and I applaud Knaak for not being affraid to make a character who is actually good for once. Why can't we have good guys anymore?

5.0 out of 5 stars child's masterpiece, Jan 31 2004

By	S. Patel "sajioblo" (Washington, DC United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: LEGEND OF HUMA (Mass Market Paperback)

Glad to see this book around. I read it years ago as a kid after a really though year, and was mesmerized. The humble knight who seeks the good, and is chosen to represent the greatest Good has to offer.

Ultimately, this book may seem cliche to older, more cynical readers, but the ultimate message of triumph through compassion is not only relevant but also just better than tired depressing mages, vampires or demons who seem to have gutted fantasy.

2.0 out of 5 stars Dissappointing!
The Legend of Huma could have been a great story if it had been told right. Instead, we get a book full of plot holes, lifeless characters, pointless battles, and a romance that... Read more

3.0 out of 5 stars Deliberate clich� fantasy. Not awful.
A 'DragonLance' publication. I've never read one before, sort of grouping it in with series like 'Babysitters' Club'. Read more
