The Deathgate Cycle is another series from Weis and Hickman i would recommend. Its one of the best series of fantasy books in ever read.

Since i'm horrible at giving summeries heres what wikipedia gives as overview
Quote:
Many years ago, the powerful Sartan ended a war by sundering the world into four elemental worlds, and imprisoned their enemies, the Patryns, in a labyrinth that became demonic. Shortly afterwards, the Sartan mysteriously disappeared. Centuries later, the first Patryns escaped the Labyrinth, and have just learned how to access the other worlds. The books follow the fiercely independent Haplo, a Patryn agent sent to scout the four worlds in preparation for conquest by his master.
Unfortunatly i cant really compare these books with Dragonlance since i never read Dragonlance (shame on me) but i would still highly recommand it.

Also SpiritWarrior, if you liked the Darksword Trilogy, back in 1997 they brought out the 4th book in that series, called Legacy of the Darksword. Its been a while since i read it but from my memory it was a book that fitted in nicely with the rest of the "trilogy" and a worthy end to the series.

Good god that sig is disturbing, lol.

Yeah Rikard I heard about this one, but also read the reviews that said it ruined the series etc. so thought better to avoid it. Still, I am a fan so may pick it up eventually just to see what all the commotion is about [img]smile.gif[/img] .
