Reunions...
17 Mar 2001
Format:Mass Market Paperback
These are the ONLY novels written before TSR cancelled the Spelljammer AD&D campaign:
In this, the third novel of a 6-part series, the main character (Teldin Moore, a native of Krynn, the Dragonlance world) meets with the Elven Imperial Navy to get help in determining the properties of his mysterious cloak, which is said to have ties to the Spelljammer ship itself.
As the story develops, he is emroiled in a conflict with the elves and the Scro, an intelligent orc race, who both want to obtain his cloak (as does an undead neogi). Along the way, he is reunited with a character from the first book (a hippo-man named Gomja) and is joined by a native of his homeworld, a female half-kender (as he would say, "Great Paladine!").
Well-written and in-depth, this continues the series of novels about the Cloakmaster. Each novel is written by a different TSR-native author. The story, so far, has meshed well and each author well-defines the broad scope of the unique Spelljammer setting.
This entire series must-buy for a fantasy fiction lover tired of the traditional "Earth-style pseudo-medievil world-walker" campaigns.

I loved the introduction of the Scro. Buy it!
25 Feb 1998
Format:Mass Market Paperback
This had to one of the best if not the best book of the series. Roger E. Moore spins a great tale about the continuing adventures of Teldin, the cloakmaster. In this volume Teldin following Vallus Leafbower's advice seeks out the imperial elven fleet. After meeting admiral Cirathorn. He encounters Gaye, the half kender[this is not a misprint] and seeks the help of a fal a great space sage, who is to be found in herdspace. However, his troubles are not yet over as both the Imperial eleven fleet and their ancient enemiesthe scro now seek the cloak. I loved this book as it introduced the Scro. Cold, clinical, ruthless. The scro are the decendants of the goblinoid races that lost the first unhuman war waged between their races and the elves. The military feel of this book is a welcome change and marks a turning point in the series. With the return of Gomja and the itroduction of several new characters. This book sealed my devotion to this series.

Delightful! The best installment in the series!
14 July 2001
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I warmly remember The Maelstrom's Eye as one of the best TSR-novels I read as a teen. Roger Moore gave his debut as a novelist, displaying a quite surprising talent for writing, given that he was primarily a game designer. He managed to elevate the up to then solid but not captivating Cloak Master Cycle to new heights, delivering a story as complex as it was intriguing. Elaine Cunningham came close to matching him in this, but after that, the series sadly dropped off. Don't miss the appearance of the dreaded space hamsters!
