it's hard to swallow that Raistlin would make the mistakes he makes 4. the more Tasslehoff Burrfoot, beloved Kender, becomes like a cliched high school girl, the more insufferable he becomes 3. there is some pretty shabby writing in War of the Twins 2. I totally get why these books are classics. LoL, I'm all getting into a fanboy mode here.

It doesn't hurt that he wants to kill the Goddess of Darkness and that's kind of her calling. She KNOWS what he is, and yet she still wants to help him. Hell, even his most bald-face lies have a germ of truth to them and while he's trying to turn her away from him, she just wants to trust him more. A magician of absolute evil and a cleric of absolute good, an undeniable romance for the ages. Even the brotherly love and the nasty betrayal is pretty awesome.īut what really makes the book is the epic romance.

The war stuff is certainly a lot more fun than the previous book's gladiator schtick. I'm totally on board with the whole evil machinations of Raistlin, how he manipulates everyone and takes on the title of another evil magician in the past and is forced to relive a seemingly unbreakable time-loop. This book's best feature is its LOVE STORY. You know, for a novel with an evil time-traveling master magician so full of himself that he wants to kill a god to become a god, a twin brother who alternately wants to kill him and protect him, and being dumped in a strange time to just 'happen' to lead a huge army to defeat a bunch of dwarves.
