Ironically just finished reading the Chronicles -- the original trilogy that is -- last night. It was better than I remembered, but also clear that it was Weis & Hickman's first author gig outside of D&D modules, 'cause someone needs to teach them "show don't tell". So much potentially exciting adventure skipped over and then rehashed in a paragraph of boring exposition -- retreiving the Hammer of Kharas, the adventure at Icewall Castle, Laurana's military campaign etc all just turned into footnotes.
Good to see Elmore back but I'm not sold on this art, it's a little static and I had a hard time recognizing Laurana -- I guess I thought of her as a little more petite (elf), and shouldn't the "Golden General" wear something other than black?
Is there still a new series due out this year?
