Arkyana I never read the saga and to be honest, it's kind of discouraging because there's so many books. When I have time, I'll try and read at least one. Read Dragons of Autumn Twilight. It's the only one that'll make any sense if you're just starting the series.

The DragonLance series was one of the first fantasy series I ever read. I started with Dragons of Autumn Twilight and went onward from there. It led me to discover many of Margaret Weiss and Tracy Hickman's books (particularly the excellent Death Gate Cycle).
I read nearly every book pre-Dragons of Summer Flame, and haven't read any past that in the chronology. What do they call all those? The Fifth Age or something?
I love the books because they are so action-packed; the Chronicles especially feel that way because they were based off of a D&D campaign. I love the setting, even though it's pretty generic. Tons of memorable characters and settings.

You might also like Second Generation and Dragons of Summer Flame. They have to do with the childfren of the original group, but some of them still show up. ^_^

I have over 100 of the Dragonlance books, missing some but will get them. Some of the books are gook, others are dry. The whole series is interesting but changing now that the original characters are all gone time wise. I'd like to know what Paladine now an elf is doing.

I must have read at least half of them. I was a real Dragonlance maven once upon a time... They really shamelessly rip off Lord of the Rings in the first trilogy though.

yes and no on the ripping off of LotR. There's always going to be comparsions between any fantasy and LotR. But by the time the events in LotR happen, all the gods are gone while the gods continue their games in Dragonlance. Also questing and mixtures of heroes is always a given...if you had too many warriors and not enough healers, then they could die from the stupidest stuff if they didn't recognize it. There's actually a limited number of books set in Tolkien's world whereas there's over a hundred in Dragonlance which fleshes out that world far more than Tolkien's.

I am a total addict, actually. I've read War of Souls, Legends, Chronicles, and a bunch or other random series I can't remember.

I was going to make a new thread but I checked the directory and there was already a DL thread (that hadn't been updated since 2008, lol). Does anyone read DL now?
