More About the Author

`Dragonlance' originators Tracy and Laura Hickman have been publishing game designs and stories together for over thirty-two years - nearly as long as their marriage - and thus started them both on a life of adventure and imagination.

Tracy is a NYT Best-Selling co-author (with Margaret Weis) of many Dragonlance novels including the original `Dragonlance Chronicles', `Dragonlance Legends', `Rose of the Prophet" and "Darksword" trilogies as well as the seven-book "Deathgate Cycle".

Tracy and Laura are remembered together for their role-playing game designs in `Dragonlance' and the `Oasis of the White Palm' series but are perhaps best known for their classic adventure, the original `Ravenloft.'

Life now has provided them the opportunity to fulfill a dream: to write novels together. Tracy and Laura work from adjoining offices in their home and answer questions on their work through their website at www.trhickman.com.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great Dragonlance companion.., September 29, 2002

This review is from: Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home: The Complete Krynn Sourcebook (Dragonlance: Sourcebooks) (v. 1) (Paperback)

Being a fan of Dragonlance for many years, but also being unlucky to not get this book the first time it was published, I was very happy to see that the publishers decided to put this book up for sale again. "Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home", is great if you want to know more history on the Dragonlance. It has a lot of info on the Gods of Krynn. There is deeply detailed information about the past of Krynn. Including wars, gods, dragons, and anything else you could possibly want to know.

There are also songs, poems, and recipes. Many of the songs and poems were published in the original Chronicles or Legends. But it is nice to have them in one place in easy reach. The recipes range from Gully Dwarf Stew to Otik's spicy potatoes. This book is definatley an entertaining companion to the Dragonlance world. People looked for it everywhere when it out out-of-print. So what better time to get it than now when they are publishing it again.

5.0 out of 5 stars Don't miss it!, June 1, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home: The Complete Krynn Sourcebook (Dragonlance: Sourcebooks) (v. 1) (Paperback)

I first saw this book on a visit to the States in Feburary 1997. Since then I have been kicking myself for not buying it, seeing as it cannot be found anywhere! It is the complete sourcebook of Krynn, a must for all Role Players or Gamers, and even fanatical Krynn Collectors. It contains background information on the Heroes of the Lance and even Kenderish maps. There are songs, recipes, and the book itself is embodied with the true spirit of Dragonlance Adventuring. Being a small-time collector and currently owning 48 D.L. books, take my advice- this is not an oppertunity to be missed!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best sourcebooks for Dragonlance, March 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home: The Complete Krynn Sourcebook (Dragonlance: Sourcebooks) (v. 1) (Paperback)

This book definitly has it all. All that miscellaneous information that isn't quite explained in the novels... especially the recipes. The problem I ran into was trying to find it, since I missed the last reprinting. To anyone looking for it, look up Margaret Weis's store in Wisonsin.. find the phone number and call. She said they had some extras laying around.. I even got mine autographed!!
