Review
Welcome to another DragonLance Saga episode. It is Misham, Darkember 18th, my name is Adam and today I am going to give you my Spoiler review of Dragons of a Lost Star.

Chapters 1-9 picks up right where Dragons of a Fallen Sun left off. Beryl is attacking the Citadel of Light and drops Draconians to find Palin and the Device of Time Journeying. They spot him, and he begins to use the pieces of the broken device to allow him to cast magical spells again, attacking the Draconians to make an escape into the maze. They ascend teh crystal stairs to escape the burning maze after the dragons attack it to smoke them out, and Dalamar rescues them at the top teleporting them away. Beryl destroys the towers out of rage.
Marshal Medan tells Laurana who the spy in her employu is and Gilthas insists on confronting him. He tries to murder Laurana when his brother kills him. He did slice her arm and the Marshal bandages it up as the King leaves to address his people, no longer pretending to be the puppet they believed. He goes to tell them about the coming army of Beryl’s and the evacuation plan of Qualinost. Goldmoon and Conundrum finally make shore, breaking the submersible, as Goldmoon continues following the sea of the dead, and Conundrum follows her.
Silvanoshei is obsessed with Mina who is indifferent to him, and Lord of the Night Taronne sets into motion a plan to murder Mina, using Silvan as his unknowing agent. Alhana is traversing the SIlvanesti forest, not able to enter the city but being kept informed by the Kirath. The young elves are worshipping Mina and the Dark Knights are treating the elves with respect, further confusing the Dark Knight leadership, and the Kirath who want to reject the knights.
Chapters 10-18 have Mina knowingly walking into the trap and being killed by the ring gifted to her by Silvan, who in turn got it from Lord Targonne. Targonne arrives in person to see her funeral and as they bring Silvan, beaten and bruised unrecognizable to also witness the funeral pyre, they light it up, and an enormous death dragon comes and the pyre is put out as mina stands triumphantly alive, and orders Targonnes death. Galdar happily cuts off his head and Mina orders Gaptain Dogah to hold Silvanesti by force, killing elves who won't give tribute to Malys, and takes the rest on dragonback to Solanthus in two days time. The sky is filled by colored dragons answering the call of the one god. It is at this point everyone reading should know who the one god is. There are so many hints that it seems obvious, though inconceivable because of the one moon and no other gods.
It is here Silvanoshei becomes the whiny baby. He starts believing in the one god and actually abandons his mother Alhana and Samar to follow Mina.
