Well thank you! Postage would be a killer, but I will keep it in mind, I seem to have developed an obsession to collect all of the FR novels........

A great site to try for finding these FR books is www.bookfinder.com. This site is basically a bot that combs through several online used book sites, including Abebooks, biblio and powells. I use it all the time for those hard-to-find books. They have Tymora's Luck for as low as $7.64, and The Shadow Stone as low as $3.00 in the US. |

Hehe... I can find you both Tymora's Luck and The Shadow Stone for $4.95 AUS (the owner of the bookstore where these novels are located doesn't realise how rare these two books have become  ). I'd purchase and ship them to you, but postage and handling to the US will likely be just as expensive .

It depends... Where are you currently located? I know of a few online retailers, but shipping to specific countries can be costly depending upon where you live.
I'm in the USA, almost ordered a book from GB until I did the conversion, ouch!
Just ordered another 12 from Amazon and Ebay (that echo you hear is the sound of my empty purse). I still can't find Tymora's Luck (at a reasonable price) or The Shadow Stone. |

Me too. But there are so many that I can't find anywhere. I've bought quite a few from Amazon, but you have to make sure that you are not ordering from too many different sellers. I've made several great buys from ebay recently, and their shipping charges are usually much more realistic. Has anyone found any online used bookstores that have alot of FR books? There are still several I need.

Agreed, it is certainly "a shame" that the book is so difficult to locate--I still view Ravens as the best book in the series.
And until the release of CoS, I would have agreed with you.
Ed and Elaine's grand work however, changed my opinion. 'Twas a pleasure to experience.

Quite true. It seems in keeping with the other "title-like" series of FR novels with which there are four books -- Priests, Rogues, and now Fighters being the more recent examples.

Are there plans to continue the cities series after The City of Splendors? There was quite a break between The Jewel of the Turmish and City of Splendors was there not? |

*chuckles* With me, it's the opposite--I found The Jewel of Turmish easily, but I've never seen The City of Ravens in any store.

As far as I know, though, they are all stand-alone novels--you don't have to read them in any particular order. |
