Forgotten Realms was one of the best additions to the D&D universe and after decades still is the genesis for tons of games, novels, and memorabilia. One of my most prized possessions is the Waterdeep City System campaign set that comes with a detailed map of the entire city of Waterdeep that takes up a whole table to lay outSo without further ado, here is a list of Forgotten Realm novels I've read over the years:
- The Crystal Shard - R.A. Salvatore
- Streams of Silver - R. A. Salvatore
- Legend of Drizzt: Exile - R. A. Salvatore
- Legend of Drizzt: Homeland - R.A. Salvatore
- Legend of Drizzt: Sojourn - R. A. Salvatore
- Canticle: The Cleric Quintet - R.A. Salvatore
- Realms of Magic (short story collection) - various authors
- Realms of Mystery (short story collection) - various authors
- Swordmage - Blades of the Moonsea Book I Richard Baker
- Pool of Radiance Carrie Bebris
I read "Swordmage" as an Advanced Reader Copier and wrote a review about it for a magazine years ago, but I'll be damned if I can remember what magazine. I did give it a good review though.
"Pool of Radiance" I found in a gym-sized book fair buried under a ton of other fantasy novels. It was in perfect condition, and even though I had never played the game, or read the previous books in the series, couldn't help but to pick up and give it a read.
I have a handful of other Forgotten Realms novels that are on my ToBeRead pile, and I even have one on my e-reader, and I feel an obligation to all the folks who devoted so much to the universe to read at least as many of these as I have the Dragonlance books (see the upcoming post). Looking on the list now, I especially feel this way, because quite frankly that list looks puny.
Until Next Time....
Forgetfully Yours,
Michael
