I'm a long time D&D player but I've never been much into fantasy fiction. The only stuff I really liked was Lord of the Rings. Tolkien's masterpiece seemed to blow everything else away. Many of my friends like the various campaign world novels (Dragonlance, FR, etc), as well as many other fantasy authors. I've tried reading them in the past but never could get into them. The writing seemed too....contrived?
I was at Border's and picked up Dragons of Autumn Twilight because I had a coupon. I thought I'd give it shot, it being the inspiration for the Dragonlance modules and such.
It's not bad. I know what's going to happen because I'd read the modules, but that's okay. So far, I'm just entering Xak Tsaroth with the Companions.
What are other peoples' feelings about the novels?
