10-21-04, 03:24 AM Hey guys, I am brand-spanking new to the Forgotten Realms, and I have a question, which I am sure any of you can answer. Do any of you have a chronological listing of the FR novels in order of release from "Darkwalker of Moonshae" all the way to the most recent? I found a listing on the wizards.com website of all the FR novels under "Forgotten Realms bibliography" and it has all the FR novels listed, but I don't know if they are in their order of release. If anyone knows, please let me know, because I'd like to start at the beginning and work my way through:) I should 145 by the time I'm done. Thanks everyone :)

Actually, I guess what I'm asking for is a listing of the different groupings of FR novels in order of their release. Like, The Moonshae Trilogy came first (since its first book was the first published), and then the 2nd Trilogy, and so forth. Again, I appreciate anyone who has this info!

10-21-04, 03:54 AM chronalogical order in FR is hard to manage. don't get too **** about reading in chronalogical order. it's best for example to read the drizzt books as a series, and not stop to read an ed greenwood novel midway through the series as thats what the chronalogical order is.
