I've always viewed Rawn's books as "fantasy cliches done right." She uses about every cliche out there, and that bothers some people, but I thought she did an excellent job with her batch of 'em. Rawn is definitely one of my favorite authors. lord-of-shadow (another user here) is another fan I can think of right off the bat. Keep us posted on your continuing opinions.
She uses alot of cliches, but her magic system (at least in dragon prince/star) is one of the most unique I've ever read.
Has anyone read any books by Melanie Rawn?

What? The whole series is an expression of depression and regret. *spoilers*

While I agree with most of the events you picked out, I disagree with your analysis *again spoilers*
