Dragonlance Series

My next series I am going to work on is Dragonlance.

Years ago I read the Dragonlance Chronicles (Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman) which has three books:

Dragons of Autumn Twilight
Dragons of Winter Night
Dragons of Spring Dawning

I also read The Legends which also have three books:

Time of the Twins
War of the Twins
Test of the Twins

I read them mostly back to back during leave time from the military.  I had started Dragonlance tales but never got through the first book.  I think it was because not having time with military training and such.

So now I am going to get back into these since this is the type of fantasy I enjoy.  Now it has been years, I am going to start from the beginning.  I should be done with Virgin River (Book 1)  within the next few days and will start with Dragons of Autumn Twilight.  I have decided with the Virgin River series to read one book a month-that way I can concentrate on other books.

When I read the Chronicles and Legends I knew there were more Dragonlance books out there.  So I looked them up and to get an idea of the order they should be read.  Lol!  There are over 160 books-not all of them have been written by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman.  So if I read six books a year it will take me at least 27 years to read them-some of these books are over 400 pages long (the ones I read were the typical trade paperback size,)  I did remember that when I read the first books, they did not take me long-less than a week per book.

This is the website where I found the list:

I didn't see when this was published so this list may even be longer, so will look for a more recent list.

Well I better get started and have purchased the first through Amazon.

Its has been a while.

And guess what?  I am going to have to reread that last Dragonlance book.  I did read other books.  When I was halfway through again-go figure-a coworker lent me a couple of her books from a series.  I will write about it next weekend. Plus I am also planning to read every Star Wars book.  I think there are around 250 books.

Reading Book Series

Whenever I read a series, I try to read all of the books within a certain time frame.  That way when I get to the last book in the series, I will sort of remember what went on in the first books. One series I finished two years ago was The Left Behind Series by Tim LeHaye and Jerry Jenkins.  There are something like 16 books in that series and I started reading them as they came out-the first book was published in 1995.  I had read all but the last four books in the series and ran into a bit of a financial slump and was several years before I was able to buy them.  However, since some time had passed, I decided to read the books from the beginning.  Some may think it is a waste of time re-reading a book.  But I had no qualms about it and found them just as enjoyable. I also did the same with the Harry Potter Series.  When I got The Deathly Hallows, I decided to read the other books again.  It took me about a year, since I usually have two to three books going on at the same time.

Rereading Dragons of Spring Dawning

I started this back in the Middle of August and then got distracted and never finished the book.  I did get about halfway done and just decided to start from the beginning. I sometimes let distractions rule my life and it is probably best if I started because I forgot mostly of what I read.
