ferrisscottr's review against another edition

I rated each book in this series separate so this is the review for the series as a whole.
Meh
Hate to say it as I've been reading Bob for over 30 years and am a big fan but this series was a dud for me. I didn't care for the characters, the world, the plot, the pacing etc. etc. etc.
This series was done early in his career and for that he gets a pass (as he has written many masterpieces since then).
I read it because I am a completionist and had to read everything he has ever published (yeah it's a sickness) but unless you are like me, you should pass up this series and move to some of his great series.

I really enjoyed this trilogy. It was fun to read, and the action was pretty good. It did a good job of keeping me entertained!

In my opinion this is the best series that Salvatore has ever written.
woodge's review against another edition
Read the first book in this compendium of 3 tales. Mmm... meh.
Update: I'm actually glad I brought this book to Sweden with me. My 10-year-old son (another voracious reader) is currently reading it and enjoying it. He's currently two-thirds done with it.
Update #2: My son just finished reading this. Thought it was great. (After I read the first book in this 3-in-1, I thought it might be suited better for a younger audience.)

Classic fantasy in all the right and wrong ways. Upper class son leaves home and nobly slays dragons, kills only the evil wizards, and manages to awkwardly get every girl.

fast-paced
- Strong character development? Yes
