I just finished listening to Dragonlance Chronicles (2): Dragons of Winter Night on audiobook while being at the gym last week. This is the sequal to Dragons of Autumn Twilight which I listened to last week. The book continues the adventures of the heroes of Krynn. This time the adventure continues but the companions are split across all of Krynn but still contine to fight the Draconians of the Dark Queen. The book is filled with heroic efforts and also betrayal. Can’t wait to read/listen to the final book in the series.
Rating: 4/5

Dragons of Autumn Twilight sets ‘em up, and Dragons of Winter Night knocks ‘em down. The second volume in Dragonlance’s seminal trilogy stokes the action with a big ol’ blast of dragon breath. The War of the Lance has begun in earnest, and the Companions–Tanis, Flint, the twins Raistlin and Sturm, Flint Fireforge, Goldmoon, et al.–find themselves separated across Ansalon. Everyone’s figured out that Takhisis’s dragon minions aren’t just scary bedtime stories, and the desperate search for the Dragon Orbs and the mythical Dragonlance is on. Lots of great combat, some humor and romance sprinkled in, and more solid character development for this complex band (especially Tanis and Laurana). An excellent follow-up bookended by cliffhangers.
