5.0 out of 5 stars An excellent fantasy, October 12, 1998

This review is from: The Seventh Sentinel (Dragonlance Defenders of Magic, Vol. 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

I have been a fantasy fan for a long time, but once I got to this series, nothing I had read before in the line of fantasy could compare except the original triligy by Margaret Wies and Tracey Hickman. I read the Night of the Eye, Dragon Wing, and this book by Mary Kirchoff. It was a little slow in the beginning but picks up quickly. The characterization and plot are very good. I would especially recomend this book to young readers because of the themes in the book. I had to admire Guerrand especially for the choices he had to make, but I also couldn't help but feel some pitty for Lymn because he obviously was not in his right mind because of his past experiences. If you like fantasy with a deep plot, I think you would like this one.

4.0 out of 5 stars The best conclusion book I have ever read, September 10, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: The Seventh Sentinel (Dragonlance Defenders of Magic, Vol. 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

Without spoiling this book, it had a wonderful plot twist from the first the Night of the Eye, to the Medusa Plague, and then this conclusion, the Seventh Sentinel. I love what became of Lyim, and the fates of Guerrand and Bram. Of the Defenders of Magic Trilogy, I feel that this is the best of the three. The descriptions did not leave me utterly confused when I put the book down, yet did not insult my intelligence. Finally, I loved how they tied information from the two previous books into this one. I would suggest reading this entire series (suggestably from Vol. 1, to 2, and finally 3.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Couldn't put it down for a second!, July 7, 1998

This review is from: The Seventh Sentinel (Dragonlance Defenders of Magic, Vol. 3) (Mass Market Paperback)

This book was an excellent conclusion of the trilogy! I am a big fan of the Defenders of Magic Trilogy and I must say that I couldn't think of a better way to end the three book sequence. If I hadn't have read the first two books I wouldn't have been able to follow all of the plot, so I recommend that you read the first two if you are interested in this fine novel. But don't let that dismay you, all three are the best books I've ever read!
