Hey guys, I have a simple question.
I haven't or read FR for manymany years now (scratch that - I've read only anthologies for some time now), and my current status is "Time of Troubles is over, Bane is dead, Mystra kicked Cyric's ass, and Ao approved of it."
I am not so interested in playing the game, as it will be a very fondly remembered 10 years of multiple worlds, planes, goods and evils, house-created villages, dungeons, feudal states, characters etc.
However I have picked up Paul S. Kemp's Twilight War trilogy by pure chance (in Dubai...) and got hooked again! It seems like Netheril is back to some degree, and Erevis Cale is a very attractive character (add the fact that in our campaigns I had a Chosen of Mask as a major plot hook, then as a "quest-giver NPC" then as a major party NPC) and that I like feuds among gods, I guess FR calls to me again!
Looks to me like Bane is back, and boy back he is! Dead for a while, now from what I have read, he is in the new ed. of D&D Corebook as a major baddie (as he was always meant to be ).
Sorry for the long introduction, but onto the questions:
1- What novels / series should I read to get back on the track? Last I remember Azoun IV was killed, there was no Shade Enclave, no Spellplague... Gods, if someone tells me that Khelben is dead, and that Drizz't retired, I will give up (oh I read the latest trilogy about Drizz't... But they are novels that can stand in their own, I need novels about the events shaping Toril itself, the ones that have a major official impact on the Realms themselves (such as Azoun's murder)
2- In what order?
3- Do you hate me for blasting in the doors, and asking questions that need pages upon pages of replies?
4- Seriously, Khelben is safe and sound right? 
5- How come I haven't discovered this website on our hard adventuring days? Was this site online on early 2000s? |
