Anyone read them? I picked them off a shelf, read a few pages of both of them and then replaced them, a little disappointed in the lack of similarity 'twixt game and book. What are they like?

Terrible is to nice a word! I read Baldurs Gate and it Sucked with a capital "S"!
They should have got Terry Brooks to write it. He'd have done a much better job.
REally bad!!!! Psst... ugh.... Psst... Poohy!!!!
