Its been 30 years since I read this last. The book is very well written. I believe this book is the best of the Chronicles and Legends trilogy. I had forgotten so many of the details of this book. There is one principal character that I could have sworn didn't survive. I'm going to change this to 5 stars.

This book, along with the other two in the Legends trilogy, was one of my favourites as a kid. The characters may be the same from the Chronicles trilogy, but only in name. The authors overhauled them completely, moving beyond simple stereotypes to create compelling individuals. This is still far from a work of high literature, but in my opinion this is one of the better modern fantasy books out there and I would definitely recommend giving it a shot if you like the genre.

- I was tricked. They pulled the ol' swicheraroo on me. My previous review of book 2 is wrong.
- I love so much about how Weis and Hickman wrote these characters. Everyone's actions and all the dialogue is perfectly in character. Each character has a distinct and strong voice I'm this wonderful chours.
- Tas is still the GOAT.
Tas being an inadvertent agent of Paladine makes sense. It also fits into my view of the mythos that it would be a Kender; always underlooked, chaotic, and wild spirited. Of course a Kender would be able to change the future. - What a
wonderful and fitting ending for the Majere twins. - While my rating don't match the sentiment, I definitely liked this trilogy better than Chronicles.

You have to read this book! If there’s one thing in life you haven’t done, that you’ll come to regret in whatever afterlife there is, it’s not reading these books! The final in the trilogy had me tearing up. What an amazing finish!!!
