hello! I’ve been enjoying your tweets and want to dive into FR books but don’t have much time. I’m particularly interested in the character of Elminster and I was hoping you could recommend a book that really gives a full picture of his origins and character? Thanks! Sure! Elminster: The Making Of A Mage tells the story of his origins, and should suffice. (He steps out of its last page straight into a sequel, Elminster In Myth Drannor, but there's then a few-centuries jump before the next El novel, The Temptation of Elminster.)#Realmslore
