Can anyone recommend some good reading material featuring the Red Wizards.
I'm looking to incorporate them into a campaign and would like to research the organization before hand.

Thanks all

Here are all of the supplements and novels of which I can think of from 2E:

Spellbound
Dreams of the Red Wizards
Red Magic
Villain's Lorebook

And I'm sure there's more.

The Forgotten Realms Campaign Setting if effectively a default must-have for any FR campaign, and provides enough preliminary information about the Red Wizard and Thay to utilize them in a campaign.

Beyond that, in order of importance I would rank;
Lords of Darkness, which covers the Red Wizard organization
Unapproachable East, which covers Thay and in turn the Red Wizards as a whole.

Finally, the 3.5 Dungeon Masters Guide has the 3.5 version of the Red Wizard prestige class, while the Players Guide to Faerun has it's updated Epic Level progression.
