I was just wondering if we had a page that detailed all books pertaining to a certain region and/or country. For example:

Halruaa
D&D Accessories:
The Shining South (2e), by Tom Prusa (PB, 1993)
Shining South (3.5e) by Thomas M. Reid (HC, 2004)
Novels:
Counselors and Kings, by Elaine Cunningham
- The Magehound
- The Floodgate
- The Wizardwar
Murder in Halruaa, by Richard Meyers
Web articles:
More of the Shining South!, By Rand Sharpsword
Et cetera

Also, is this something that other scribes are interested in?

It's a fantastic idea and I think Ergdusch was compling such a list about Cormyr and Tethyr.

And if the PCs DO win their ways through all the liches to Larloch, “he” will almost certainly be just another lich (loaded with explosive spells) set up as a decoy, with dozens of hidden liches waiting to pounce on any surviving PCs who ‘celebrate’ after they take Larloch down. As the REAL Larloch watches (magical scrying) from afar. Myself, as DM, I’d be wondering: “Such a glorious game, so many opportunities laid out before your PCs to devote your time to, and THIS fixation is the best you can come up with? Are you SURE you’re adventurers?” -Ed Greenwood

That was part of what gave me the idea, but a I was thinking a bit simpler, just something that would be a quick reference of materials.

Well, the topics I started are here: Cormyr and the one for Tethyr which is in dire need of further work, and that rather intensively...

Anyhow, I think this to be a great idea. So keep it coming.......

I believe EvilKnight is already doing something like this with his own FR Index.

Good idea! I was just thinking about compiling a list of everything Moonsea. This region is very quickly becoming a favorite of mine. So much intrigue!!

I think a lot of people would find this sort of thing useful. It strikes me that some kind of collaboration might be an idea here if there are lots of people wanting to work towards similar ends.

Life is either daring adventure or nothing.
