Haha... No worries, Attalus.. The city was destroyed after the events in BG2.. In fact, many of the books take place after that.

Can't believe I missed that. I really need to read War of the Spider Queen. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Checks the price: Hm.. each book costs € 23,74 (28 US Dollar). Outrageous. How do they expect to sell at such prices?

I've read the latest one, book 5. And MAN..... I'll just say that book 5 is VERY good, but my favorite Author (which is a member here btw), Paul S. Kemp is doing book 6. And Choc becomes the new Drow god. (JUST kidding) but book six should be awesome. I am glad Paul is the one to close this series, because he'll do it right!!

Hey T, After you read them, in my NWN mod, you'll love those Pharaun and Ryld Item sets even more, and get a background on them. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Pharaun is the new Drizzt. But mortal. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Yeah, I know.. I don't do hardbacks much unless its something I REALLY Want to read. Sitting here, looking at all 5 books, and thinking THATS $125!!! damn.... But these are MAJOR world altering books for the Drow. And In my NWN Mod EfU, I throw tons of references to loads of Forgotten Realms Novels. So if you read the Novels, you will be rewarded with some cool stuff and items.

True enough. I think my local D&D store sells some of them (paperback) for 6.99 each. Maybe they can order the rest of the series [img]smile.gif[/img]
