Summary: Riverwind the Plainsman
Comment: This starts when Riverwind is still in the village, and he is trying to win the hand of the Chieftains Daughter, Goldmoon, in marriage. But as Riverwind believes in the old gods, and that religion is frowned upon, Riverwind is sent on a quest to find proof of the old gods so he can marry Goldmoon.
On this quest Riverwind finds an underground city of elves, ruled by a powerful female elf. He spends much of his adventure here, and learns much about the secrets and plots of the city.
The authors did a good job in this book, though Riverwind isn't a very likeable character. The story is good, and if you have read other Dragonlance books involving Riverwind, it's nice to know what's happened to him in the beginning.

Summary: Riverwind the Plainsman is surprisingly good!
Comment: When I bought this book, my first thought was that it would be a story of Riverwind's journey to Xak Tsaroth and would probably not fit into the Chronicles timeline. I was wrong on both thoughts. The book is very well written and the characters are good. (although I wasn't much impressed by Catchflea, and there is a long draggy point of walking through endless tunnels.) The story is like two books in one: first Riverwind journies to an undergound city of lost elves and participates in their rebellion against an evil elven sorceres, (Li El has to be one of the most evil villians I have ever read about) and then he journies to Xak Tsaroth to battle draconians and Khisanth the black dragon. It tied in very well with the series and explained why Riverwind couldn't remember the adventure. I know most people say that the preludes stink, but this one doesn't. Pick it up if you were as curious as me about Riverwind's lost quest that was wiped from his memory.

Summary: All in all a good book
Comment: Riverwind the Plainsman was an ok book. The biginning was somewhat dull but the ending made up for it. The prediction at the begining at the beginnig made you gess the whole time when and who it would happen to. Like some of the other readers have stated there is a slight confliction with the other books.
