*vaguely wonders if the historical sections in the Rage will mention of occurences that happened when he was a kid...*
Very shiny.

Only that it is set in past Realms history. I dont have any lore to hand but I assume that the period of the Year of the Rogue Dragons is actually in the Roll of Years. Does anyone know the DR date? |

That's correct.

Most likely it's been postponed... Wizards doesn't even show it on their product list for this year. Though it was shown on RASalvatore's website... |

There is an ongoing petition over on the WotC FR forums for a novel based on the 'return of Bane'. Whether WotC actually pays any attention to this petition is another thing entirely.

I am not so sure anymore Rad. For the last several years there was an ongoing petition by the online Dragonlance community to request that WotC reprint the 'Elven Nations' trilogy. At GenCon this year, WotC announced - after much consideration, and by seeing the number of signatures on the petition (which I am glad I now signed) - the reprinting on the entire trilogy and is now slated for release next year.

Actually I rather think that Wizards is like a kindly ruler that listens to what his subjects ask. BUt the problem is that the EVIL Lich HASBRO has Wizards under a very nasty epic level charm spell that often makes Wizards turn from the true path. I sholdn't complain too much you know. Hasbro Gave me Transformers.

Fear not, Mournblade, I've heard of these great and mighty . . . er . . . (sees Alaundo frowning at him) um, golems -- yes, golems. Very big golems . . . .
(psst -- remind me to send you a particular link. I think you'd like it . . . .)
And Malanthius, the twain do meet. For instance, in one of my own stories; or in the Warlock books. Also The Wizard in Rhyme . . . .
(sees Alaundo glaring)
Um . . . I'll just be going now . . . . |

Well, some of the priests series will also be released next year. The first one is about a priestess of Shar if I remember correctly. They will also print a new "realms of" book for the Year of Rogue Dragons trilogy , but it won't be out in 2004 as far as I know. |

I'm still waiting for the Year of the Risen Elfkin. Maybe it will have something to do witht he Avariel repopulating much like how Moradin gave the Thunder Blessing to the dwindling dwarves. |

Or maybe something to do with the Daemonfey since Richard Baker's new trilogy of novels confirms they will be featured in the series as the villians. |
