The series is good, if oriented to younger audiences. For me the character of Haplo was easy to identify with; troubled, used as a weapon against others, untrusting, and so 'lost' as to not even know himself. The story follows his growth and letting go of rage/anger at both himself & others. There are obviously other characters, who are traumatized and flawed.. and who grow.

#DeathGateCycle #margaretweiss #tracyhickman I've read a lot of books in my life, but nothing as crucial to my being as the Death Gate Cycle series. It's not the most amazing story ever told, not the greatest epitome of writing, it is merely a series existing at the right time & place to allow me to hold on to my fractured self in the face of childhood trauma.
