View Full Version : Dragonlance beginner
Volsung Mon, 5th May '03, 9:49pm AT LAST, Dragonlance books translated to Greek :roll: :rolling: :) :D :grin: :shake: :spin:
Because I don't know anything about Dragonlance (only that it's a campaign setting for D&D)can you tell if these books are good for me? The books translated are: Dragons in winter nights(I'm just translating the Greek title which may differ, for example: The thousand orcs(original title)-The orc invasion(Greek title)) and other two of the same serie.

JSBB Mon, 5th May '03, 10:10pm The original Dragonlance trilogy were Autumn Twilight, Winter Night, and the Spring Dawning (in that order) so it would appear that you are looking at the correct books to start.
In my opinion these three books as well as the second set of three books (the twins trilogy)were very good but the other Dragonlance books tended to be very bad.
Volsung Mon, 5th May '03, 11:21pm Ok! Thank you very much :)
:running to bookstore to buy the books:
Gaidin-_- Wed, 7th May '03, 2:34am A recommendation: There are way, way, waaaaay to many DLance books to organize them and keep them in order. Stick with the Weis and Hickman ones.
Dragons of Autumn Twilight
Dragons of Winter Night
Dragons of Spring Dawnng
Time of the Twins
War of the Twins
Test of the Twins
The Next Generation
Dragons of Summer Flame
Dragons of a Fallen Sun
Dragons of a Lost Star
Dragons of a Vanished Moon
Frog Wed, 7th May '03, 4:24am I completed Chronicles and Legends this year. Kinda in the same vein as Time Bandits(movie), but fantasy. (At least it felt like that while reading them) They were good, but not great.
Mithrantir Wed, 7th May '03, 3:18pm :yot: Do you know which publishing house has the dragonlance series published i would appreciate it the most. ;)
Volsung Wed, 7th May '03, 3:25pm Anubis. Have you read the Drizzt books? They're published by Anubis too.
Quicksylver Wed, 7th May '03, 3:46pm I've heard a lot of people give differing opinions on the Dragonlance saga, but in my opinion, it is very good. Dragons of Autumn Twilight is one of my favorite books. It's something about the depth of the characters that Weis and Hickman produce - very fascinating. The characters are very "human" heroes - possessing various abilities and whatnot, but also having a great deal of issues.
Alexander, I highly recommend them, especially the Chronicles and Legends.
Taluntain Wed, 7th May '03, 5:59pm Gaidin-_-, not for SP.
I suggest you check out http://www.sorcerers.net/Books/index_drag.htm
And buy books there and help support SP, of course. ;)
