Lord of the Rose: Rise of Solamnia, Volume One

I will start by saying that I have not read any of the other titles in the Dragonlance realm - that's right, not one of them. I picked this book up on a whim, I was looking for something in the Fantasy genre to read as opposed to ANOTHER Sci-Fi book. That being said I was pleasntly surprised by this read, I rather enjoyed this book and have subsequently recommended it to some of my friends. The characters were ones that you can picture in your mind and the settings left me with wonderful images of great mountain ranges and incredibly majestic castles. I felt that this book was worth the 7 or so dollars I spent on it. All in all a good read.

I thought this was a good book as far as reading goes. I didnt like how their was so much time in between the books or that they are moving this series into a more technologicaly based warfare. The characters were interesting and well-rounded. I thought he could have gone into a more detailed description of the battles that take place. All in all i liked this book and cant wait for the next book in the series.
