Dragons of Deceit

Loved being back in the world of Dragonlance and had an absolute blast devouring this book - but didn't find myself engaging with the actual story so much this time around.

Our heroine, Destina, frustrated me. She's set up in the first act as a really well fleshed-out protagonist that you can't help but relate to and feel sorry for but by the end of the book it's like her actions don't even stay true to who she was set up to be, and it gets harder and harder to root for her.

Add in the whole time-travel element with Tasslehoff that was already done well multiple times in the original series, and everything just feels a little like a shallow repetition of what I once fell in love with.

In saying all of that however, I love Weis and Hickman's writing style. I loved reading a story set in Krynn again and I loved all of the callbacks and characters from stories of old. I also really dug the tension of the finale and really do hope that we see more from this series because even though this might've been a bit average, it has set up some very very exciting stuff.
