It is almost impossible to describe how wonderful this book is. There is nothing about it that is not absolutly perfect. It is absolutly incredible what Margaret Weis and Tracy HIckman have written. I wish I could sit here and type out the whole plot, but unfortunatly, I can't. But I will say this. The characters are beyond belife. Anybody who didn't worship Raistlin before will now. He is most definatly the greatest fantasy character ever written. Crysania is good too, especially in Test of the Twins. Dalamar Nightson, Raistlin's apprentice, is one of the better characters, and is part of why this trilogy is so incredible. No one has ever written anythig close to this. Everyone should read this book, it is so wonderful. Personnaly, I've read it so many time I can almost recite it, and it never gets worse. Please, for the love of Raistlin, BUY THIS BOOK.

By far, these are the best set of books that I have read in a VERY long time. I agree with some of the other people that the contents, especially the ending should NOT be reveiled in an email. I think that such a wonderful book should be read by the reader & not told to you by some goof. Experience the wonderful world of Krynn for yourself & you'll find you'll be back again & again & again.... :) Enjoy them all but start with Chronicles first! :)

If you are reading this and thinking about buying, STOP READING THIS AND DO IT. I really can't think of any better book to read (other than the Chronicles) to get you started on fantasy. These books are easier to read and understand than most Tolkien novels. Caramon and Raistlin show the true struggle between Good, Evil, Love and Hate. Tasslehoff Burrfoot, our friendly Kender, also plays a MAJOR role, which I am glad to say. Just one more word......AWESOME!

Legends has some of the most interesting story lines of all of the Dragonlance series. To me, character development is one of the most important elements of story telling and the team of Weis and Hickman have always been the best. By the time you are done with the last page, you could swear you have known these characters all your life. There are many important "life lessons" to be learned from these books that are not preachy or self serving. I thoroughly enjoyed this book and recommend it highly to anyone who enjoys authors who have the ability to take you to another time and place and make you feel right at home by introducing you to their friends and family. I also recommend that you immerse yourself in the Dragonlance Chronicles.

Off limits! Never buy these wonderful adventures. If you do, you will ever after be disappointed in everything else you read. It's truly sad to stumble through the rest of your life searching for a comparable read as lively and passionate as this series by the masters of adventure, Weis and Hickman. OK, you've been warned.

Ever since my bf introduced me to Dragonlance I have been reading them non stop. These 3 books are awesome! They really are very action packed and make you sit back and go WOW. I didnt get sad with these 3 books at all I was more sucked in and sometimes got so outraged by the actions of some of the evil people (you know who Im talking about) These are a must read.

This was one of the best series I've ever read, next to Chronicles. I read it at least five times!

i have read every dragonlance available and many well known fantasy novels, not once have i read anything that could even be compared.

Absolutely the Best Prints of the Dragonlance saga ever. Raistlin and Caramon are twin brothers by birth. Caramon was always the Over Protective brother with a large mass of muscle and warrior instinct, while Raistlin was a small and ingenious minded wizzard. Raistlin was a magus that scared his own teacher as a youth. He was far ahead of anyone he had ever see even at age 5. He took the Test of the Archmages to become one of the order and has to make a deal with Fistandantilis, an already past and life force only existing most powerful magus that ever lived in Krynn, in order to pass. By making the deal he is forced to lived the rest of his days with Gold Skin, Frail Health, and Hourglass eyes that makes him see all things dieing around him. He doesn't let the frailness of his body stop him from the only thing he ever loved, his magic. In the series you will see Caramon become the most Hated twin and Raistlin rise to do what he was born to do and that is BECOME A GOD...

I love these books. I have read them several times and they are pretty old, as the cover breaks off if you bend it. I think it was a bad idea to not mention what happened to Rastlin. I have not read Dragons of Summer Flame yet, so I don't know what happens from that book. It is great to read, fun to memorise, and the cover doesn't taste that good.
