Why Maquesta? Why not?

This is one of the best DragonLance books I have ever read. I have been reading this series since the seventh grade and have read at least 45 books, and this has been one of the most dazzling books of the series. The truth is, a lot of the DragonLance characters get very boring and repetive after a while. Most authors use the same characters, elves, knights, humans, dwarves, and kender in their books. It is always the same group of people based on the group from the original Trilogy. Maquesta Kar-Thon provides new faces, new races, and a new story to the series. I loved the original characters and colorful ride, plus the fact that this is the first and probably only story where there are no kender characters. What also is nice about this story is that it can be read outside of the series and the reader can still understand what is going on. The book does not completely rely the full DragonLance background and the casual reader can sit down and enjoy this book to its fullest potential without becoming confused.

AMAZINGLY EXCITING

This book was by far the best book I have read in the Dragon Lance saga. It is exciting throughout the entire book. It took me five days to read this book, and I am a slow reader. But I couldn't put it down. You feel like you have to keep reading to find out what is going to happen next. I wont give out to much info for thoughs of you who have not read it yet, but the book takes you on an adventure to capture an exotic creature. I wont say anymore so I don't spoil it for you. But if you are looking for a book to read that is absoloutly stunning and amazing get this book. It is indeed the best in the warriors series. With the exception of LORD SOTH. Another good book. But never the less Maquesta Kar-Thon is one of the best. It lives up to any standerds. Trust me, buy this one.

Wonderful Reading!

This was a wonderful book that took me far away from my every day life and threw me into the mouth of a giant octopus! Mixed with an emotional battle bettween a young woman fighting for the life of her father and a minotaur lord who has an obssesion with strange creatures it is a book I would recommend to every one. Just a little touch of romance adds the right key. If you are looking for the perfect adventure book this is the one for you!

A VERY SATISFYING BOOK TO BUY AND ALSO TO READ!!!!

Find out what happened to Maq in her dangerous quest with her friends. I should say this one is an excellent book to read and a very touching story indeed!!!.
