A review by ghostlydreamer
Dragons of Spring Dawning by Margaret Weis

5.0

I was clearly on a fantasy kick during the summer of 2016. So much so that, unfortunately, so much of it blurs together. But while I don't recall much of the actual events from this book, I do recall the feeling it left me with. This book was a ride, and it took me through all the emotions one would expect from a good fantasy novel. Is this story full of cliches? Absolutely. If you've made it this far, you're probably aware that this will not be the most unique story you'll ever read. But I think that's part of its charm. It left me with that feeling that I'd just read a classic, traditional-style fantasy. It's fun, it's exciting, it keeps you entertained. It's bold and soft and beautiful, and it's harsh and frustrating and overall addicting. I remember being satisfied with the end of this trilogy, being glad that I'd finally read it. I'd read the second and third books back to back, so that must say something about how enamored I was by it, even if it'll never be my favorite book or series in the world.

So be prepared for traditional, easily digestible fantasy. If you've made it this far, you'll probably love it, much like I did. After all, it's usually the first book that loses people in a series like this.
