Hi there. I'm new to Ebberon. I'm currently working on reading my way through the book. :detect: And I'm really enjoying the maps, and all the locations. They're all detailed quite nicely, but I was wondering if there are any other published books that detail some of the Main cities(Sharn,FairHaven)? Also I'm looking for more individual maps for cities.

If not has anyone gone into the cities them selves and detailed them for their own games?

Welcome to one of the best D&D settings I've seen produced for 3rd edition (remember that's my opinion, take it as such).

The book Sharn, City of Towers covers the entire city, taking a look at each district in each layer of the city, important people, adventure hooks, etc. As for some of the other cities you may want to look at the book Five Nations, I have it but haven't read through it yet and I think it does talk about some cities in there. Granted not in as much detail but it should be helpful.

As far as the gaming group I'm in now we haven't done anything with the other cities ourselves.

Well, I'll leave it up to some others to detail the other sourcebooks that you might find interesting (Sharn: City of Towers, Five Nations, Explorer's Handbook, etc.). What I will leave you with is a shameless plug to look into my thread on Khorvaire's demographics (http://boards1.wizards.com/showthread.php?t=848129). As a map buff m'self, it was really fun trying to figure out sizes, populations, and the like.

You're in luck!
The first Eberron sourcebook was Sharn: City of Towers (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/eberron/864200000) and it's naturally a good one to get if you're thinking of running a game there.

The Five Nations (http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=products/eberron/178680000) sourcebook includes a map of Fairhaven, as well as a few pages on features and NPCs, in it's section on Aundair.

Fluff-wise, some of the novels also do a good job at filling-out the cities.
