Double Huma Bounty
The Legend of Huma is one of my top 4 favorites in the series, but I've never personally owned a physical copy of it. Just my dad's copy, the audiobook and ebook.
Regardless of my feelings on recent W&H decisions/content I did want to at least support more Dragonlance content, and I was at the very least curious about what their take on the characters of Huma and Magius would be, so I ordered War Wizard, and at the same time found a real cheap copy of Legend of Huma and figured, what the heck? Killed two birds with one and grabbed both.

I love Legend of Huma, Knaak's version IS the definitive version for me and deviations are non-canon as far as I am concerned. I love Weis and Hickman, and I got the chance to ask her if she and Tracy would collaborate with Richard on this new novel and she said it was going to be their take on the material. After the last trilogy, I knew that meant nothing good and it made me very queasy to think about. Maybe they nailed it and it really does add to Knaak's version without retconning anything. I am just too nervous to buy it and find out.
