As a long time fan of the Dragonlance saga, I looked forward to learning more about the mysterious sea-elves. I had just completed the book Kagonesti, and assumed the Dargonesti would give me insight into the life and history of this race of elves. Alas, this book deals only with the granddoughter of Kith-Kanan and her encounter with a band of sea-elves ruled by a mad queen. This group of elves have detached themselves from the rest of the species, and te queen's delisuions of grandeur encompasses them all. To me this book was a great dissappointment. If you'r looking to learn more about the sea-elves, don't by this book. It is abvious that this band is not representative of the species. For those of us who want to learn more about their history, we'll just have to wait for better times.
