A good addition to the twins' history. Stein portrays Caramon and Raistlin wonderfully, (though not as good as Weis and Hickman, but hey..), and the mystery of the story is intriguing. Also interesting is the building tension between the brothers, and evidence of the jealousy and differences that will eventually tear them apart. Stein is faithful to the original characters, though the book is more like a Sherlock Holmes adventure.

I absolutley loved this book! Raistlin & Caramon are at their best, and I really enjoyed the adventure. Stein kept the story alive, and we see that Raistlin does indeed care for his brother, even though Caramon will never understand him, or the needs that drive him to attain a higher power. I love Raistlin and hate him at the same time. So well done to the author - a total pleasure to read. More of the same please!!!

The only reason I bought this book is because I am a big-time Raistlin fan. I thought it would probably be lame. But hey, it had Raistlin in it! I had to give it a try. It turned out to be an excellent book. In not even one chapter was there a torpid moment. And the ending was beautifully heartwarming. I reccomend this book to any Raistlin and Caramon fan.

Awful.
This is a poor excuse for a novel. The twins are misrepresented, Raistlin's level of power (for the time period) is incorrect, and Earwig Lockpicker is the most poorly realized... Read more
