What was best about this era of dungeons and dragons was the lack of constant wit and irony everything uses today. I love the sincere sober mindedness that this is presented in. Makes all the difference between something feeling frivolous or significant and worthwhile.
@GetMeAReubenSandwich I thought he was the main voice, doing all the characters and such. There's a second voice actor, with a much deeper voice, doing the summaries of the abridged parts.
Awww, it's quite abridged 😔. I really miss some memorable moments; Tasslehoff arguing with Flint because Flint refuses to get in the boat, Sturm following the deer... I like the voices, but would have loved an unabridged version
@@GetMeAReubenSandwich In my memory, this was fairly accurate depiction of the books. It just leaves some details out which also happens in movie translations.
These specific recordings, read by Peter Mac Nichol, were never released in an unabridged format. The unabridged audio books were released later, with different narrators. For your convenience, the playlist description shows them as abridged.

I loved checking out these tapes from the library. The abridged effort may be flawed but the narration, performance and musical injections are marvelous!
I need my oldest son second born after strum brightblade i read wvery book i believe from 7th grade till start of my freshman year 1991 I'm not sure if they ended then or not i was giddy to see the audio on RU-vid sense Mt bedtime was 8pm untill I left home I fell asleep reading these books with a flash light
I used to own these tapes at a kid! So cool to hear this rendition with Peter! Thanks for posting this. I’ll be playing this before bed for many nights
I really enjoy these. I read the books many times. Only issue is so much is left out. A lot of the characters dialogue adds so much to the stories. Beggars can’t be choosers. Ty for these tho.
Hearing this so many years later, I never realized how many errors there are, the introductions, quotes missing, Tas missing lines and actions, Theicrat not burning himself again, the old man’s dialog changing, Tanis’ leadership changed fleeing, Raistlins spell scene not calling the spell and his acidic tone towards his brother.
@@GetMeAReubenSandwich I had no idea it was, however the 5 video set I’ve been listening to for the last 3 years mysteriously was deleted off YT yesterday. It had the thumbnails with the large blue numbers if you’ve seen them before. Very upsettting as the voice acting was better. EDIT - I’m not trashing your channel, you simply uploaded another version of the audiobook I wasn’t familiar with and it should be saved for historical reasons.
@@nesmandan1037 Absolutely, I completely agree. Never heard or seen the vids you speak of. Preservation was my aim in posting these. They were my original introduction to Dragonlance many many years ago. Peter McNichol's voice work really brings the stories to life... in my opinion.
