[QUOTE="Friadoc, post: 3475077, member: 5445"] Hopefully, if (big if, since the novels sell well) Dragonlance ever goes on the block, WotC and Hasbro would be kind enough to offer Margaret and Tracy first crack (of course, didn't they do Ravenloft first, too?) at buying the rights. A point of clarity on something I just said, too, although I do not agree with their pulling the IP from Weis and Co., I won't say that WotC doesn't have the right. They've owned the IP for DECADES, it's theirs since they first bought it from Margaret and Tracy back in the day up until and through the license, and it is theirs to do with as they please. I think it sucks, however I've not read a Dragonlance novel in close to 15+ years and the only RPG material I own for it, if I remember rightly, is the original book. :o I loved the world, but I sort of lost my taste for it once Raistlin's story was mostly, fully, told. Him, Caramon, and crew were the stories I started and ended on, although I might hit a book store one of these days and refresh my collection. Tammy, my girlfriend, saw my box of Dl novels one time when we moved and was surprised as she never saw them before - it's a pretty large box since I own just about everything, novel wise, up until the mid 90s.
