Ambre et sang

Dragons play such a central role in Dragonlance stories, but I wonder what inspired the specific way they influence the characters' journeys in this book.

The tension really ramped up during the action sequences, but I felt some of the political intrigue slowed things down. Was that intentional to build suspense?

The world-building is so rich and detailed—I wonder if the author had specific elements from D&D or the original series that influenced this particular narrative.
