Het valt op hoe verschillend W&H ertegenaan kijken vergeleken met hoe Mary Kirchoff en Steve Winter Tas portretteren.

In Wanderlust toont hij enorm veel intelligentie, vooral als speurder voor vallen, verborgen gangen, en meer (zie laatste deel van het boek). Voor W&H is hij grappiger, ietsje dommer in z'n acties, ... Hier is het precies een wat volwassener Tas en dat vergt wel een gewenning. Centraal draait het om een toekomstvoorspellende armband, voor de troonopvolger van de Dargonesti elven, ofte de zee-elven. Flint moest 'm maken, 't was een geheime opdracht. Tas, in een typische Kenderbui, heeft die 'toevallig' in z'n bezit, maar geeft 'm dan door aan anderen - in de hoop goed te doen en hem zo terug bij Flint te bezorgen -, waardoor ie na verloop van tijd in de verkeerde/evil handen terechtkomt. En zo trekken de 3 (Tas, Flint en Tanis) samen met Selena (die de armband liet maken) op avontuur.

Soms komt het verhaal wat kinderachtig/simplistisch over, maar algemeen gezien is het zeker de moeite waard om te weten hoe Tas bij Tanis en Flint is verzeild geraakt en hoe de groep beetje bij beetje uitbreidt per boek. ( )

Tasselhoof Burrfoot was a brilliant creation of Weis and Hickman. A loveable, adorable cleptomaniac that grabs your heart strings and makes you laugh. And, he is much better suited as a secondary character not the main protagonist. This novel, while fun at times, was mostly fluff. If you collect Dragonlance you'll want it. If you're just looking for a good story in the Dragonlance world, there are better titles. ( )

Book description
From the back cover: Leave it to Tas to make an entrance. The "irrepresible kender" wanders into Solace and meets (forcibly) Tanis Half-Elven and Flint Fireforge. What began as a bracelet mysteriously "falling" into one of Tasselhoff's pouches turns out to be an adventure which leads them on a long journey - a journey to save the entire race of Dargonesti elves.
