[QUOTE="Randolpho, post: 260475, member: 3016"] I have to agree there... the ending left a *lot* to be desired. That, and the numerous editing mistakes left a really bad taste in my mouth about the series. Personally, I got the feeling that the ending was tacked on to make room for the new campaign setting. I honestly believe there was a different ending, and when Weiss/Hickman found out WotC would release a Dragonlance campaign setting for D&D (Finally!), they tried to set it up with the book for that setting. That's all fine and dandy, but finish the book first! Just IMHO, of course. :) I still have the highest regard for Weiss/Hickman. Everyone gets to have a bad book once in a while. That being said, I think the new world *will* be a fun setting to play in. Nobody can complain about novel heroes overshadowing the PCs, because, of course, there aren't any.
