If you've played D&D games such as Baldurs Gate, you already know the 'basics' of the Realms. Personally, I started with the Dark Elf trilogy, and was introduced to Fearun by Drizzt do Urden.

I strongly suggest with the Icewind Dale Trilogy or The Crystal Shard. Those are the first I read and I am hooked on them.

<font color=skyblue>The Icewind Dale Trilogy was my first as well, and I hated reading before I got these books. After that, I picked up any book I could find. Now I own them all! Definately start with the Icewind Dale Trilogy.
</font> <font color=white>Here...Get this, which is the combined trilogy in one binding. It is worth the money. http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x...ovel/218110000 </font> [ 11-23-2003, 09:59 PM: Message edited by: Larry_OHF ] |

Actually, the Dark Elf trilogy (although it was published later) starts before the Icewind Dale trilogy. Which makes it a good starting point.

<font color="Deepskyblue">Id say go for Dark Elf Trilogy first, makes understanding Drizzt in Icewind Dale Trilogy that much better.</font>
