Jason Heller, of The A.V. Club, stated a positive review of Dragonlance Chronicles, remarking that "Dragons of Autumn Twilight" is still widely read, although he noted the clichés of the series: "In "Dragons of Autumn Twilight", the adventurers meet up in a tavern—even if it is a tavern that’s nestled in the branches of a giant tree, something my 12-year-old self thought was super cool. (My 42-year-old self agrees, although my days of getting drunk way up high up in a tree are starting to wind down.)".
