DRAGONS OF THE DWARVEN DEPTHS The Lost Chronicles, Volume 1

Even a series as well populated as that of the dragonlance universe has gaps. For followers of the series, this first in the lost chronicles fills in background from the war of the lance or, for newcomers, provides a new entry point to the series. Sandra Burr appears to have fun with her characters, bringing humor to the characterizations, clearly reflecting the relationship between Tanis and Flint, and offering a bit of comic relief at times. Her characterizations are descriptive. Her portrayal of the low-level acolytes of the dark queen, who are hissing lizards, almost slithers. Their leaders are more subtly portrayed, an approach that is consistent with their characters. J.E.M. © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: DEC 06/ JAN 07]
