4.0 out of 5 stars New anthology in Dragonlance world., April 7, 2000

By	"halforc" (Moscow, Russia) - See all my reviews

You'll know that going on in the world after folling of the Gods. As the land of Krynn groans beneath the rule of mighty dragon overlords, small bands of rebels spring up to battle the new oppressors. From the streets of Palanthas to the Plains of Dust, from the frozen reaches of Ergoth to the swirling waters of the Blood Sea, here are tales to stir the heart and the imagination.

Here is shot stories that I like more than long series about endless saving of the world.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, November 25, 2000

By	M. Vinoski "Tweek" (Kalamazoo, Mi., USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I bought this book at a barnes and noble book store (they don't have hardly any DL in their stores, btw), just because it was one of the few DL books on the shelf, and once I decided to read it (which was after a few weeks, cuz i thought the book would SUCK -- which it didn't) I was really suprised at what I read on the inside cover, that these tales are written by EXPERIENCED DL authors! Soooooooo I was like WHOA! damn, and I opened it and started reading, and I was like, really suprised man, at these awesome stories, dude.... No really, it's a really good tales book. MY fav. tale was, "The deep deep, dark dark place", which is about these gully draws and it was hilarious! Man u have to read this! Especially the one about the raid on the academy of High Sorcery, which is by Margaret Weis. It's really good =) And the other tales, of course, have some action in them! ~SO READ IT~
