Hey #DnD fandom. If I wanted to jump into the Forgotten Realms novels, where do you think I should start? (I’m looking at you specifically @r_a_salvatore, @TheEdVerse, and @ChrisPerkinsDnD as people in the know (hey, a 66.6% Canadian D&D callout — nice!)) 1)
I would recommend starting with HOMELAND by R.A. Salvatore, ELFSHADOW by Elaine Cunningham, AZURE BONDS by Jeff Grubb and Kate Novak, or SPELLFIRE, ELMINSTER: THE MAKING OF A MAGE, or SWORDS OF EVENINGSTAR by me.— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 10, 2020
2)
If you don’t mind starting a trifle later in the chronology of the Realms, you could start with THE GOD CATCHER by Erin M. Evans, THE CITY OF THE DEAD by Rosemary Jones, or DOWNSHADOW by Erik Scott de Bie. 3)
Several of my friends prefer to read Bob’s books in the order written, so they start with Drizzt and his companions with THE CRYSTAL SHARD.— Ed Greenwood (@TheEdVerse) April 10, 2020
