Primero de todo, este libro es una metedura de pata de la editorial, porque de los 5 relatos originales de la versión original, aquí sólo tenemos 2. Los otros 3 están incluidos en otra colección de cuentos de la Dragonlance. Así que lo que se supone que es la presentación de los nuevos personajes de la saga, los hijos de los héroes de la lanza, se queda coja.
Entrando en los dos relatos que sí encontramos aquí, se centran en Steel, hijo de Sturm, y en Gil, hijo de Tanis. Me parecieron historias interesantes, y especialmente me gustó el personaje de Steel, pero no deja de ser eso, una primera toma de contacto con los nuevos personajes, una transición entre sagas.

I liked all stories basically. Although I didn't have any memory of any of them before. So it's good to come back to them after more than ten years ha.

Poorly written. In w technical sense, too. Jumps from third to first person in erratic ways. Stories are contrived. The "heroes" the story is continuing seem like caricatures. They are two dimensional and don't seem to have consistent motivations.

But the AD&D manual in the back is pretty cool.

I’ve been an on-again/off-again reader of “Dragonlance” for about 20 years, and I was really looking forward to continuing with the children of heroes I’ve gone on adventures with, but this book just didn’t hit the mark for me. Maybe it was just not the palate cleanser I needed after the month of chonkers I’ve had.

This is a collection of stories that is supposed to set up later adventures for these characters, but unfortunately none of them were memorable to me. Weis and Hickman are known for their usual care for their craft, and there were certainly moments of their usual brilliance, but not enough to get more than a mid-level ranking from me. However, I may revisit it at another time and my ranking might change for the better.

I found this to be a good selection of stories that expanded the world of Krynn well along with showing how each of the characters grew as parents and how their children were not carbon copies of them like how Caramon's son was magically inclined and how, despite being very much like his uncle, he did not follow either of their footsteps. Yet it did well to show how even Raistlin became a parent. So all in all it was a good book to read.
