Reception
Rick Swan reviewed Dragonlance Classics Volume III for Dragon magazine #215 (March 1995).[1] He felt that the original Dragonlance Saga modules series "stands as one of the most ambitious and satisfying fantasy campaigns ever published. Time has diminished its appeal not a whit, evidenced by the Classics series"[1] Swan comments: "Don't worry if you passed on the previous two Classics books; Volume III is self-contained, including enough background to make newcomers feel at home in Krynn. Whether you experience the Saga as a whole or an abridgment, it's not to be missed. They don’t make 'em like this anymore."[1]
