5.0 out of 5 stars The best trilogy of the series, 1 Jul 2004
Raistlin, the evil mage is the master creation, W & H obviously knew this, they've written a whole trilogy about him.
Alot of the dragonlance series storylines and history of krynn are stolen from tolkien, and to me, to coin a Stephen King phrase - Wiess and Hickman are the Big Mac n' Fries of fantasy writers.
I first read the dragonlance series when i was 14. I am now 31 and decided to read the twins trilogy again, as I had remembered prefering them to the first trilogy. The first time round I was enthralled and couldn't put the books down. Now, it is more lesuirely reading but still great fun. I don't know about anyone else, but personally, anything W & H wrote after the first six books were poor in comparison, e.g the heroes trilogy was absolute Trash.

5.0 out of 5 stars I liked it better than the Chronicles, 16 Jun 1998
By A Customer
I am not a Dragonlance fan. I've never enjoyed reading enough, but I did read the Chronicles and the twins trilogy. The Chronicles trilogy was great. The struggle and character interaction was great, but I really felt there wasn't enough development on my two favorite characters (Tas and Raist) until the third book. I have never been one for a character development, but because of the nature of the characters I just had to know more about them.

The Time of the Twins give you the first real glimpse at Raistlin's destiny, soul and power. It gives Caramon something to do other than bash heads and act as his brother's lap dog. It gives us more time to enjoy Tas's antics (I LOVE the whoosh thing). Perhaps most importantly it gives you the chance to see just how manipulative and deceitful Raistlin can be. He truly roped Crysania in.

In short, the book is absolutely marvelous for those who enjoy the kender-kind and dark mages with good hearted twin brothers. Of course, if you don't like any of those, don't even pick it up.

5.0 out of 5 stars RAISTLIN IS THE BEST EVER, 9 Mar 2000
By A Customer
The legends trilogy is next in the Dragonlance series of books. This time the focus is on Raistlin,Caramon,Tas,and a new character Chrysania,plus a cameo by Tanis,Riverwind and Tika. The story is of Raistlin's Quest to be a GOD, and Caramon and Tas try to stop him. In the begining Caramon is a pitifull sight and his depression and drinking are so bad that even Tas the fun-loving kender is sick of him. Thru the story you learn more about Rasitlin and Caramon and why Caramon can't seem to live his life without Raistlin. All in all a well written book and even some time-traveling (my personnal favorite) I highly recommend this series.
