Publisher's Summary

poor performance, good story

I can't stand someone who describes a laugh and then makes a pathetic attempt to perform it...guess I should just be thankful there was no singing.

So sub-par reader for a fantastic story.

Like a fine wine, this book keeps getting better!

Having read and enjoyed this book multiple times throughout several stages of my life ( early adolescence through adulthood), I've always thought it would transition well as an audiobook. Not only did it transfer well, but completely shattered my expectations.

The story itself is timeless. The narration by Richard Topol was amazing. Reminiscent of story tellers of old, Topol breathed life into an already fantastic epic. Topol lent vivd expression to each character. His tone cemented the mood and seamlessly transitioned the story.

If you enjoy fantasy and a classic epic or incredible verbal acting, then do yourself a favor and give this a listen...you won't be disappointed!

I like it.

I liked it. It was an enjoyable fun story. Not very deep but fun. Good book.

decent

I dunno guess I was expecting more. There was a few times I lost interest in the book. But It got better towards the end.

Great story, bland narrator

Story was very good, though a little inaccurate at times. But the narrator was very boring.

Decent story

I liked the story, but I didn't care for the narration. It was kind of dull and I had a hard time paying attention all of the time because of a lack of inflection all of the time.

My personal favorite

The story is great, full of action, suspense, and riveting plot twists. Ironically, all of this books gleam and luster are dulled by the narrator who failed to read this book with any spirit or inflection at all.

Good adaptation

Well I originally read this book, I wasn't expecting much but was pleasantly surprised by the story and what was done with the characters. The audio adaptation manages to capture the characters of the book with the characters sounding exactly how I imagined them (especially Kaz).

One of the best books in the Dragonlance univers

The only thing about this book that I don't like is that it is too short
