Great
The ending of this book was so bittersweet for me. It was such a good ending, but it left me sad that the book is over.

The final book of the trilogy is a must read!
If youβve come this far in the Dragonlance trilogy, you canβt stop now. The action is fast paced, and all the mysteries are revealed. A must for any fan of fantasy literature!

The climax delivers
This final book of the "Dragonlance Chronicles" trilogy will not disappoint. In order to pull this off the entire plot has to have been planned out well in advance (indeed, well before starting to write) to avoid a meandering making-it-up-as-I-go-along feel that leaves the reader with the suspicion of being jerked around. Thankfully, authors Weis and Hickman seemed to have avoided this. If forced to guess I would posit that the first book in the trilogy was meant to stand alone in case sales did not warrant sequels. Once it was clear that they had a hit on their hands the next two books were plotted together.The book has many strong points. A few of my favorites:1.) The moral ambiguity of Raistlin. Yes, he generally aids the good guys but it is clear he has an agenda of his own. Very well handled and kept me guessing throughout the book.2.) Kitiara. Utterly ruthless. But does she still have a weakness for Tanis as Lord Soth suspects or is she just toying with Tanis as she claims? Does she even know?3.) The "hangers on" getting a chance to shine. Caramon, Tasslehoff, Flint, Tika, and Laurana all have integral parts to play and are not there for muscle, comic relief, or as a damsel in distress.4.) Well thought out and entertaining sequences featuring Astinus and the library in Palanthas, the sea elves and the city of Istar, and Fizban.On the debit side it seemed that Goldmoon, Riverwind, and Gilthanas fade from the story in this book.The Kindle version is flawless except for the sparse chapter marks on the progress bar. The map is also near useless.Highly recommended. Don't be put off by the role playing game origins of this trilogy.

A book
Its a book. You can read it. I did. Not sure if that was a good decision. I just want popsicles all the time.

Excellent 3rd book of the series. Many unexpected twists and turns. I can't wait to start my next book of the series.

A Great End to A Great Series
For those of you, like I did, that thought volume 4 is the continuation of the series... it really isn't in many ways. First of all the characters are different and you would need to read "Second Generation" to even get an idea of them. Aside from that, it was written much later and others have complained about a drop in story quality. Well enough of Volume 4, this is Volume 3 and it is fantastic. I hate to see a series end, and the entire time I was reading I was wondering how they would wrap up all the action in just one book, but it was done nicely and didn't feel rushed. Again, the realism of the series shines in this book, as the emotions of the characters come to a final climax. If there is any complaint about this series, its that the adventure had to end, but I honestly don't think it could have ended in any better way.

An enduring tale
I have read this series a number of times. I first read it between 12 to 13 years of age. The characters retain their fullness through out the story. They are not simply empty shells. You grow to love them and weep as they weep and laugh and love as they do.

Those wonderful Ladies
Yet again this awesome twosome has produced a truly wonderful adventure for our intrepid heroes (OH! and Tasslefof Burrfoot of course).Again and again the tales just keep coming and the (at times) laughter is so loud that these books should only be read in a secluded area, so as not to startle your near neighbour........I don't care I have found that others ask me why I laugh at a book and I know that many have now started to enjoy the adventure.Never stopYours in total appreciation Jimmy Simpson

Brought back memories...
I first read these books when I was a teenager fell in love with all of the characters now 30+ years later it brought back the same admiration and tears for our fallen heroes. In my opinion you need to read this trilogy
