Books based on PC Games usually suck, but I remember Pool of Radiance 1 in 1988 I think--and Pools of Darkness being good reads.. BUT--Baldurs Gate books were EXTREMELY bad. I've never read them, but everyone I talked to said they were trash...
Ok, NOW Mem... (evil grin) Elminster goes to Hell--or should it be "Go to Hell, Elminster!"  Well, if he's IN Hell, we should not see any naked chicks in it.. maybe nude fem demons! (gag) It was in Hardback, and went ahead and bought it.. I need something new to read--taking a break between Silver Shadows and Thornhold. After Elm, I'll read Thornhold--is it as good as Elfsong? Silvershadows is kinda slow.. not boring, but just slow.. ------------------ Ziroc Ironworks Webmaster www.tgeweb.com/ironworks |

  I do not want the hardback version. I only collect paperbacks. I will probably have to wait for another year to get it. In the meantime, I have plenty of other books to read, including the recently released (paperback version) of <u>Servant of the Shard</u> ------------------  Devoted member of the Ironworks Loyal guardian of the OHF Member of the Ancients' club |

Servant of the Shard was a good read, but I wanted more.. (As always with an R.A novel) but Sea of Swords looks to be even BETTER! Drizzt is back, and he looks PISSED! ------------------ Ziroc Ironworks Webmaster www.tgeweb.com/ironworks |

Silver Shadows is probably the weakest of the Arilyn books. Thornhold is NOT about Arilyn, but Danilo makes an appearance and he's always good for a laugh. The book has a lot to do with Khelben. It's pretty good! ------------------

I'd like to read this...a question though:
Are there any other FR books that I should read to become more familiar with Elminster before reading this? Or just start with this one? ------------------ a bunch of long hairs. trux |
