I just finished reading Dragons of Autumn Twilight, and I have to say I loved this book. I was told to read this book first before all the others in the Dragonlance series, although frankly, I’d already read The Legend of Huma a few years ago. And since Dragons of Autumn Twilight makes mention of events in that book, to me it would have made sense if that book had already been read.

You have several main characters - Tanis a half-elf/half-human warrior type, Flint - a dwarf, Tasslehoff Burrfoot - a kender, Raistlin - a mage, Caramon - a warrior and Raistlin’s twin brother, and Sturm Brightblade - a Solamnic Knight. Other characters get added to the mix as time goes on, such as Goldmoon & Riverwind who are Plainsmen. Goldmoon is the keeper of a blue crystal staff which has healing powers. Their first quest is to find out the origins of the blue crystal staff. Other quests follow with much danger coming with them.

All in all the book was quite captivating and I highly recommend it to anyone who likes to read the fantasy genre of fiction. You’ll be amazed at this one. Now it’s on to read Dragons of Winter Night,  the second book in the trilogy.

I give this 5 stars out of 5.
