Abstract
We find a formula for the $Q$-polynomial of a pretzel link $L(p_1,p_2,\ldots,p_n)$. The formula describes the $Q$-polynomial as a polynomial in $H_{p_1}(x),H_{p_2}(x),\ldots,H_{p_n}(x)$, where $H_{p_1}(x),H_{p_2}(x),\ldots,H_{p_n}(x)$ are Laurent polynomials in $x$ and $H_{p_i}(x)$ depends on only $p_i$.
