This story is very clearly only the beginning of a connected story that has the setup to become something truly epic.I just finished reading The Lost Chronicles, and as usual I thoroughly enjoyed the series. I definitely recommend this book, but only to Dragonlance fans but to all fans of fantasy. And thank you for being one of the very few DL authors who actually does their research and creates stories that are accurate to the world and have the same feel as traditional Dragonlance. While it was detailed in the Time of the Dragon gaming materials, this is the first time it's been truly brought to life. More than the characters, though, herein Chris has finally brought to life the "other" continent that I've been fascinated with since it was first mentioned all those years ago. Few of the others have been able to develop new characters who feel real and give me cause to care what happens to them.
I've said this many times, Chris is absolutely one of the great Dragonlance authors, right up there with Margaret Weis & Tracy Hickman, Jean Rabe, Richard Knaak, and Dan Parkinson. At this point, I have to think the decided to spend the minimum possible on audiobook narration for the Dragonlance books as only a handful are more than mediocre (and many are much less). For ancient powers are waking in Taladas.Īnd here we have another fantastic Dragonlance entry by Chris Pierson that was given an only mediocre audio performance. One will live, one will die, and one will wish for death. In the shadows, an elven thief tracks a mysterious enemy that seeks a stature of eldritch magic…. On the grasslands of the Tamire, an ambitious lord unites the barbarian tribes, streaming south for plunder and bloody conquest….Īmong the fortresses and cities of the Minotaur League, a victorious general returns to his family after years away…. Disasters wrack the land, nations clash, dark forces stir in the aftermath of the Godless Night. Sorcery, long thought lost, has returned to the world.
But half a world away, on the continent of Taladas, the troubles are just beginning. On Ansalon, heroes and gods have banded together to save the world from destruction. No title has ever been set in this unexplored region on the other side of the world, allowing for an infinite variety of new characters and experiences within the context of Dragonlance. Blades of the Tiger explores beyond the realms of Ansalon, the traditional setting for Dragonlance novels, and into the land of Taladas. The first book in a series set in an uncharted land within the Dragonlance world.
