| BookwyrmEDS01-05-08, 03:13 AM | To answer you question about Erevis Cale: He first shows up in the anthology book Halls of Stormweather (Book 1 of the Sembia Gateway to the Realms series). He shows up in most of the short stories in that book and has a story all about him. Book 2 of that series, Shadow's Witness, is also about him and continues on from the short story in the first book. He also appears as a (sometimes) minor character in the rest of the books in the Sembia series (but most of these can actually be skipped, though some of them are good stories in their own right). Then its on to the Erevis Cale Trilogy (Twilight Falling, Dawn of Night, Midnight's Mask). Finally there is the Twilight War Trilogy (Shadowbred, Shadowstorm, and the last one is called ShadowRealm, bit it doesn't come out until Sept). There are also two additional short stories floating around about him as well. One is available right here on the Wizards site called And All the Sinners, Saints (http://ww2.wizards.com/Books/Wizards/?doc=fr_allsinnersaints) which takes place between Shadow's Witness and Twilight Falling (the first book of the Erevis Cale Trilogy). There is another one about his early life and how he got to Sembia in Dragon Magazine #277 called Another Name For Dawn, but I don't think its ever been put online though. |
