Overview - The Series, Chronicles through Legends: As I have stated in earlier reviews, the original, 6-book story is, in my opinion, one of the absolute best in fantasy. I will not expound much here (to avoid spoilers for those who have yet to listen/read the book), other than to say that, once again, Weis and Hickman masterfully draw everything to a conclusion, not only ending the tale on a poignant and well-crafted note that follows from everything that came before (it is often the case, in my experience, that some conclusions forget their origins, particularly when, at least at the time they are written, the author(s) feel(s) it will be the last 'word' on the matter (the authors, in the 'Annotated Legends' admit they thought this would be the last book written about Krynn and the characters we have come to love), and he or she (or they, in this case) is/are trying to wrap everything up, although 'possibilities' may still be rolling around in the mind the question of how to end it all, and timing for ending, publishing, and so on (and this book was written in less than a month, according to Weis) has the pressure on), but, even with a firm conclusion, also leaves the reader with enough 'unanswered' about the characters and the world, that the reader can 'develop' their own future of Krynn and what happens after (if one stops here, of course - as mentioned, no other books had been planned at this point). Overview - The Audiobook: This is, in my opinion, a great ending to the story. That said, the narration may, in fact, be more the cause of my elevated blood pressure and 'road rage' than the actual traffic.more on that momentarily. I folded, due to the fact that my commute is long, I have been listening from Chronicles onward during the drive, and I am addicted to the story - might as well finish the whole thing out. Preface: In an earlier review of the first two books of the series, I mentioned that I would, indeed, NOT purchase the third installment of the audiobook versions of Legends, simply because of the narrator.
