My door to fantasy.
Cheesy as it sounds, these books changed my life. I picked up a copy of Dragons of Autumn Twilight at school and was hooked. Ten years on, I'm a fantasy writer myself. Yes, the writing style is unexceptional, but who cares when the characters sweep you up and take you away with them. Alright, Laurana and Goldmoon are entirely too beautiful, and Sturm a bit too perfect, but Tika,Tas, Fizban and Flint are great. As for my favourite, Raistlin, I defy anyone to read the books and not be rooting for him. Some people say the story is too simplistic, the issues too black-and-white, but to me they're missing the point. It's the charm of the characters, the youth and humour and innocence, the sense that you're traveling right along with them, that makes the book.

very rereadable
I have read my copies so may times they are falling to pieces. I have been searching for replacements here in the UK for ages. Thank-you Amazon. There is such a variety in the characters I think anyone could find a likeness to one. Tanis- who feels he needs to look after everyone else, Caramon- who's muscles at times seem bigger than his brain, Raistlin- Who has built a wall around himself, Sturm- who just wants to belong,, Goldmoon and Riverwind- Dragonlance's Romeo and Juliet, Flint-The grumpy old man, Tika-who's reputation is has been assumed, Laurana- Who never got over her first love, Tas- who's relentless curiosity never fails to get into trouble and Fizban- Who is just a down right loveable character.

This has to the best fantasy series ever
I read these when they were first released in the 80's, I found them very riveting, couldn't put the books down, due to some misfortune whilst moving a few eyars ago, my whole collection was stolen. So I boguht the Chronicle collectors edition a few eyars ago and it still had the same impact.

Once you really get to know and undersatnd what drives the characters, you begin to feel for them, know their pain, like any good story really, but this was so different, I had the lumps in my throat when certain character met an untimely end, you feel the sadness and sorrow that thye other characters feel.

I am a professional film director and writer and find these books so inspirational for my own work. these are not as heavy going as ther Lord of the Rings, not that LOTR is bad, on the contrary, but they can be a bit overwhelming when so many chapters focus on a specific plot and it seems to take forever to read it, but that is not the case with Chronicles or Legends.
