I'd love to know the story behind these books. Like, were they squeezed out because of the sudden success of the Chronicles or what? This one rounds up the freefall. Not only is it not very good, but also the most uneven of them all. There are long scenes completely superfluous to the story in the beginning, and then a mad rush to finish everything in the end. I felt nothing for the characters after such a long journey through six books. A sad ending to a classic setting.

The epic conclusion of the Legends trilogy, I feel like this one was intended to rip out your heart. The final battle looms as Caramon and Tasslehoff get a glimpse of a bleak future and, with the help of the magical device, embark on a mission to stop it from happening.

In this book we see a now, much more serious and determined Caramon, a more subdued kender, and the depths to which Raistlin's evil sinks. The ending is surprising and heartbreaking, but strangely satisfying. We can wonder what happens to everyone next while being content to let the story end—although we know there are MANY more books.

This is easily one of my favorite series that I can read again and again. Weis and Hickman are wizards with the pen, and it's their storytelling that keeps me coming back.
