I think that not enough people read these books. Everyone I ask says "No, I've never heard of dragonlance" Anyone else read dragonlance, besides me?

I have read the vast majority of them because they are really well written, but I prefer the Forgotten Realms.

I have read all of the Weis/Hickman books except the very last one they apparently released recently. They are among my favorites. Death Gate Cycle is good too. I have read each many times.

It's about these adventures that the main characters go on, Names are: Tanis, Caramon, Flint, Raistilin, Tika, Tas, Riverwind, and Goldmoon. Is that it?

Well theres a series of adventures...If you read them you would start off around Dragonlance Chronicles, then Legends, and erm, I forgot the ones in between but I'm not giving out any more detail...I don't want to ruin it.:D

I would read the Legend of Huma, then Chronicles, then Legends, then Summer of Flame, then Soulforge, then the War of Souls.

I've read a few of them but I prefer robert jordan's wheel of time and the forgotten realms stuff.

yeah i've read dragonlance...i've read all kinds of D&D books...i prefer FR, like most people...but not salvatore...his are best in graphic novel form, and i think they've done the same with some dragonlance books too

My cousin reads FR but I told him Dragonlance is better, but....to tell you the truth I haven't read any yet. I think I'll borrow some of his.

heheheh yeah well...it all depends on the writer, but the setting is different that's the thing, somewhat different rules of the universe...i like FR dragons better than DL dragons to be sure

Yes, I used to be very interested in the Dragon Lance series until Lord of the Rings came along.

They're are good books, though. So far I think I've read three of them. Can't remember which ones, though.

I like Soulforge after Legends. And yes, Legend of Huma is one of the few non-Weis/Hickman books that is a must-read.

DragonLance is a great fantasy series (the ones by Weis/Hickman anyway). The only series better than it is Weis/Hickman's <i>Death Gate Cycle</i> books.

The best Weis and Hickman books I have read I found to be the Darkblade trillogy.

Yes. It's like a prelude to Dragons of Summer Flame.

I was thinking about getting into Dragonlance, but which one should I start on?

Raistlin

The Chronicles: Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winter Night, and Dragons of Spring Dawning.

Dragonlance and The Death Gate Cycle are my two very favourite series of books. Ben25, if you haven't read the Death Gate Cycle, you should give it a try when you're in between Dragonlance books. Especially if you like Fizban. ;)

I forget which trilogy I read. It was one of the Weis and Hickman ones, but I cannot remember. It is with Raistlin and that priestess who goes blind...

I meant to get into the series more but I never did.
