This is book 5 of the Death Gate Cycle and won't make any sense unless you have read the previous 4. This book has many failings in terms of plot continuity and repetitiveness, but it does continue the action packed adventures of Haplo, Jarre, Dog, Bane and the Serpents on Arianus, the realm of Air...

This is the fourth book in the Death Gate Cycle, set on Chelestra, Realm of Sea, the last of the four worlds created by the Sartan during the Sundering of the Old World in their battle against the Patryns. The narrative is interwoven with the personal diary of Grundle (who is just awesome!), dau...

Book 3 of the Death Gate Cycle is an entertaining, action packed, and sometimes intense, romp through Abarrach, the less-than-pleasant Realm of Stone (not to mention lava and poisonous fumes). Haplo and Dog make new "friends" and meet old enemies. The world building is deliciously original, with a...

From the blurb: "On steamy Pryan, never-ending sunlight and plentiful rain have created a jungle so vast that humans and elves dwell high in the trees and only dwarves live anywhere near the ground. From the treetops the aristocratic elves sell weapons to the other races, whose incessant warfare ...

Dragon Wing is book 1 in the completed Death Gate Cycle of 7 books. The first book contains a complete story but there is quite obviously something more complex going on. The best part of this book is the world building - it is original, even after all these years. The characters are also fairly ...

While I understand why some people did not like this book, I found it rather interesting. It is not typical of other books within this genre, and unlike many young adult books nowadays it does not involve vampires or werewolves (not that there is anything wrong with that necessarily). I did not find...

As a fan of the Fantasy genre, and a lover of board- and roleplaying games (mind you, not THOSE kind of role playing games), I've been wanting to read the Dragonlance series for years now. I didn't get to it until a few weeks ago, because A. other books, and B. I only wanted to read the first trilog...

The last time I read this series, I did so disjointedly over a couple of months as a friend of mine and I swapped books.This time I'm doing it in a more orderly fashion...Starts out a bit jerky language-wise but overall a fun read. Everyone in this story is an asshole (Except maybe Alfred, but proba...

Synopsis: A group of friends/heroes fights a war against an evil goddess and her armies. Its pretty straightforward stuff. As I mentioned when I started this trilogy I spent several of my teenage years obsessed with the novels from this shared universe. Re-reading these has been a nice sentimental...
