None of those books ever seem to be availabe here in The Netherlands. I've been looking for R.A. Salvatore's Darkelf-trilogy for years now, either in English or translated to Dutch, but nothing... Nor any other books that are set in the Forgotten Realms.

That's great! Sea of the Swords and Elminster in Hell in paperback! You know, they are a bit expensive in the hardback edition so it's time for shopping!

Buy from an online service (I recommend www.amazon.co.uk or www.amazon.de if you speak German as the shipping costs from www.amazon.com are very expensive). I know the feeling, there's only one shop in my city that sells English Forgotten Realms books and they buy new ones maybe once every ten years... [img]graemlins/1dizzy.gif[/img]

I've also only recently begun reading, I started with The Crystal Shard, although the Dark Elf Trilogy is very good as well! I'm not sure if it really STARTS anywhere, could someone who has read more of this than I do please help?

Are there any shops nearby specialized in comic books? Most of them sell lots of D&D stuff as well, and there's a big chance they will sell FR novels there. At the Eppo and the Atomik in Eindhoven they have plenty of those... And you could try to order them from the American Bookstore in Amsterdam, very big chance they will have them over there. Cheaper I think then ordering and importing them via Amazon.

Thanks for the info! No, comic book stores in Leeuwarden (where I live) don't sell FR novels, but I'm gonna try the ones in Eindhoven or Amsterdam ASAP [img]graemlins/biglaugh.gif[/img] .
