Summary: A Great Beginning
Comment: This a really great book and deserves more than five stars! It keeps you wanting for more. Be sure to read the next two books (Brother of the Dragon and Sister of the Sword)! A great beginning and a suprise ending that you would never expect!

Rating: 3
Summary: good story, wrong metal
Comment: i really liked the story, but parts of it conflicted with an earlier book, The Kagonesti. according to The Kagonesti, at 3811 PC, the elves had steel axe-heads, plate mail, swords, daggers, and arrow-heads. and the humans were allied with the elves to defeat the dragons. and balif was leading an expedition east to expand the elven territories. if anyone would lead a western expansion, it would seem to be quithas, who is absent in this book. also, according to The Dragons, the humans also had steel. the only race that used bronze was the ogres. this dragon duranix's existence also conflicts with The Dragons. overall, a good story, but it conflicts with the back story too much. 3 stars for the story.

Summary: Great book but totally inacurate
Comment: This book is fairly good, and has some great characters and an interesting plot (although not very surprising). There aren't no real problems with the book few grammatical mistakes , and it is fairly interesting. Yet I didn't give it 5 stars, why?.Well for it quickly becomes a story about one of the main character bonding with one of the Dragons , the problem with that is that back then , the Dragons of krynn were in close-knit groups and chromatic and metallic weren't dishing it out. Then there is the elven-human war, were a group of humans led by one of the main characters and armed with flint weapons manage to hold off the elven forces of Silvanesti for 10 years , that's ok, but then they lose their entire hold of the land in one battle because the elves somehow manage to take them out with a suprise attack using cavalry. Also I find it hard to believe that in 10 years the humans who are mainly aboriginal could create a village ,tame horses , and create a reliable weight and pulley system. Oh well , if you don't mind these oversights, you should read it .
