Icewind Dale trilogy

I cant belive I waited so long into my life to read my first R.A. Salvatore book. Last week, I completed the Icewind Dale trilogy and was amazed. I just finished Homeland, the first book in the next series, and I foresee myself reading everyone of his books in the next couple months. I actually enjoyed his books moreso then the Shannara series by Terry Brooks.

Still doesnt beat the enders game series tho

The Dark Elf Trilogy is much better.

The Dark Elf Trilogy is much better.

Dark Elf gives a lot more backstory to one of the characters, which doesn't force you to take things at face value when a character's past is mentioned.

However, I also enjoyed the Dark Elf trilogy more.

Yea I was on the 2nd book in the Dark Elf when I wrote that post, its finish now, I really liked Sojourn the one where he is trying to survive on the surface. Now I am just waiting til xmas for my mom to send me the rest of Salvatores books.

What "grade level" or "reading level" would you attribute to these books?

Um, High School at most?

They're really nothing major, just good stories.

Yea, its about the story, not the reading level... and I cant really say what grade level they are, because I started reading 400+ page novels back in 5th grade while everyone else was reading Goosebumps.

Yeah, I read Stephen King's "It" in 7th grade. 1090 pages was kinda huge, longest book I ever read.

What sucks about DnD for me tho, is they are in the Ebberon campaign now, and I just fell in love with Faerun less then 4 months ago.

Um... Forgotten Realms is a campaign setting. So, in the Forgotten Realms series, they're in... Forgotten Realms.

Sorry I am really new to this whole Forgotten Realms / DnD thing. Your saying that Faerun and Ebberon are both part of the Forgotten Realms, and while stuff is happing in Faerun, other stuff is happening in Eberron? Cus If I remember correctly, at the end of the first campaign in Neverwinter Nights you come across that chick that looks just like Aribeth, but shes not... she says she is from some other realm...

Faerun is a continent in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting. I think that, in essence, a campaign setting is like a universe. So the happenings in Eberron are completely separate from the happenings in Forgotten Realms.

So your concern that you'll be leaving one setting behind for another is founded, but my point was that, if the "they" you were referring to were the characters of Forgotten Realms, then they're not in Eberron. They're in Forgotten Realms.

Not sure about Eberron or Forgotten Realms being continents, but I would treat different settings as different worlds, pretty much.

Im reading the cleric quintet right now, I like it, Cadderly is a cool character. I also ordered all the rest of the Drizzt books I dont have, cant wait for them to get here. Also DnD Online looks gay. Ill just stick with Neverwinter Nights 2.

I'm just starting the last Drizzt book that I know of. It's my... 15th I think. I'll prolly go back and read the Cleric Quintet if you say it's good. Otherwise, I'm gonna move on to Wheel of Time, more Dragonlance (if I can find any), or just read some classics.

I wasnt going to get the Cleric Quintet because it didnt have any of the characters from the other books, but I got it as a gift for xmas in the mail so I decided to read it while I waited for the books I ordered to come in the mail. I just finished the second book in the 5 book series and completly love it. Cadderly and his friends are a great set of characters and I would love for them to meet Drizzt and his crew in a book, that would be awesome. Go ahead and get the series, you can get the collecters edition that I got which is all 5 books in 1 volume.
