Is this the 'prequel'? The one where Cale decides to go to Sembia? I remember reading it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere.
That is it. |

Ah, thank you. I knew there was another one, just couldn't find a reliable reference to what issue it was within. |

I believe one of the stories Erevis is featured in is "All the Sinners Saints" in Dragon #297.

Thus, I should warn you that the beginning of Twilight Falling has a major spoiler in the beginning of the book about what happens in the end of the last Sembia series book, Lord of Stormweather.
He also features in two shortstories in Dragon magazine, one of which about his earlier life in Westgate. I can't remember which numbers though (maybe 277 and...??? Rad? Shadow lord?) |

Posted - 01 Feb 2004 : 20:20:55 the thornhold book was awesome btw ! i really wish to hear more about bronwyn, Dag zoreth and algorind. |

Posted - 01 Feb 2004 : 03:25:16 Well, the more recent reprintings of Thornhold make it apart (Book IV) of the 'Songs and Swords' series by Ms. Elaine Cunningham, so I guess that would be the answer...

It happens ocassionally with a number of FR novel series that you read. Take the Harpers books for example...it doesn't really matter if they are read in order or not, although it makes sense to leave Thornhold until last...
I haven't read all the Hapers books. They're hard to find. What was the prequel to Thornhold? |

Posted - 31 Jan 2004 : 08:14:54 It's best to follow Sage's advice, he is a SAGE after all.
You don't have to read the Sembia Series in order of publication as each novel follows one of the main characters life's story. So they don't really follow a chronological order. It's not too difficult to piece together different events mentioned between novels. |
The Sage |
Posted - 29 Jan 2004 : 09:25:41 I don't think reading them in order is all that important. I didn't, and I still understood everything that was happening with regards to the general 'Sembia' storyline...

Thanks for the info, bro. So are these Sembia books a continuing story or are they each one offs?
Brock
They are independant stories but there ARE points in some which refer back to the previous novels in the series. I HIGHLY recommend that you read them in order. |

Posted - 28 Jan 2004 : 19:57:33 I was thinking about picking up Twilight Falling as it seems to get high praise.From what I've been reading though the characters in it were set-up in previous novels. Could someone tell me the books I'd need to read before starting on Twilight Falling?

Posted - 28 Jan 2004 : 17:57:28 hehe..ok thanks anyway |
Adrian Moonbow |
Posted - 26 Jan 2004 : 11:36:41 AFAI, he starts out being not a 'priest-type'.
Otherwise: I can't answer without spoiling! |
Elfinblade |
Posted - 26 Jan 2004 : 10:48:36 i have read all of the sembia books, but it is not mentioned anywhere whether he is a priest, or a chosen. |
Lina |
Posted - 26 Jan 2004 : 04:13:50 Well to answer your question without me telling you the answer, try reading the Halls of Stormweather (Sembia Series). He's mentioned in there too. |
Elfinblade |
Posted - 25 Jan 2004 : 05:06:43 hehe,.. so i`ve heard,. i actually have it in my shelf, but i`m finishing crucible first, then its cale time. by the way, crucible did`nt quite get me going like adventure books should when dealing with this type of matter..(he killed gwydion for crying out loud!!). anyway, goodnight :D |
