Still good work
4 Aug 2008
Format:Paperback
This is the comic adaption of the third part of the Dragonlance Chronicles Trilogy, first published in 1984. Unlike the first two adaptions, this one was split up into two parts.
While the first two adaptions were exclusively drawn by Kurth, this comic is drawn by three other artists. I do not think this was a good idea, consistence would have been better. Furthermore one of the new artists has a style which is a little bit too comic-like.
Moreover the pages are framed. In the previous books they were fully printed, which I felt was artistically more appealing.
Nevertheless the drawings are good and the story adaption by Dabb is still worth a compliment.

Dragonlance Graphic Novels
4 Sep 2009
Format:Paperback
The Dragonlance novels by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman are loved by huge numbers of fans, and the stories have basically formed a world of their own. The books are well written. The characters are memorable, and the action is nonstop. The books are great fun to read.
I'm sure the graphic novels of Dragonlance are less well known, but they are also extremely well done and great fun to read. As listed below, the saga starts with the three volumes of Chronicles and then moves on to Legends.
Chronicles, Book I: Dragons of Autumn Twilight
Chronicles, Book II: Dragons of Winter Night
Chronicles, Book III: Dragons of Spring Dawning (2 books)
Legends: Time of the Twins
The illustrations in the graphic novels are outstanding and seemed to fit fine with the pictures I had formed in my mind of the various characters. The action sequences stand up to scrutiny by the reader, and dragons are all over the place. However, reading these books cannot possibly be the same as reading the originals. The graphic format has its limitations, so the depth of the original stories is not here but the spirit certainly is. I recommend the books highly to all Dragonlance fans. Please keep in mind that you should read the novels first. Otherwise, keeping track of the action in the stories could be difficult.
One unfortunate note is that Time of the Twins may be the only volume published in graphic format from Legends. My understanding is that the publisher has no plans to put out succeeding books from Legends. That is too bad.

We bought this to see what a comic book style of our favorite series would be like. It was very intriguing and something different to read. We liked it very much :)
