Not errors . . .
30 Jun 2005
Format:Mass Market Paperback
The review by Ms. Weir is wrong is several respects. When the Elven Nations books were written (circa 1990-91) Dragonlance lore was different than it is now. Some elves did live a millenium, in certain favored circumstances, and the dates of Huma were changed by TSR *after* these books were written. (See the timeline in the 1987 edition of "Leaves from the Inn of the Last Home.") When Carter, Niles, and I wrote these books, Huma was a historical character. A major restructuring of Dragonlance chronology was made in the mid-90s, but it's hardly fair to call these "errors" when they weren't wrong when written.

The most envisioning fantasy book of the decade.
25 May 1999
Format:Paperback
Firstborn takes place before the popular events of the Dragonlance saga, respectively about 1,000 years fictional time before the series' focal points, the Majere Twins, Tanis Half-Elven, The second Cataclysm, etc. The book's literary genius is found in its ability to render classical romance and youthful intrigue so quickly, the romantics never complicated but desirably easy to relate to. This is the book that I would recommend any new fantasy reader to first touch down upon, but better yet a way for experienced fantasy readers to find for themselves a remnant of classical fantasy, by no means nostalgia however. A+

Excellent imagination!!!

Format:Paperback
Great book! Thompson and Carter have outdone themselves. This first installment gives great insight into Krynnish Elven History. Wonderfully done.
