While browsing WOTC's site, I saw that the product list for 2005 had been updated.
For the FR, I see we have:
Ancient Empires by Travis Stout in 02/05 (I mentioned this possible product in another thread today).
and under new novels
The Rite by Richard Lee Byers in 01/05 and
Viper's Kiss by Lisa Smedman in 03/05.

See, I told you that 04 and 05 were going to be good for FR.

So Ancient Empires, huh. And Ancient Empires. Then we have Ancient Empires. When you get done reading through that you can pick up a copy of Ancient Empires. Man, my bookshelves are gonna be full!
Just in case there's more room on said bookshelves SB, what other 'generic' products do they list for the RPG line? |

Follow the link in the original post and you can see the full list of products. Perhaps even by then, WOTC's web team will have the links to each individual product's page functioning. |

| As is so often the case when catalog pages are first updated, all the links return one to the main WotC page, and likely will do for the next day or two. If we're lucky, there will be some more information up by, say, Monday. :) |

| Peace, goodman Dargoth. A Races of Eberron tome was a foregone conclusion, and The Magic of Krynn isn't a sourcebook; 'tis a novel. |

Taking that title from SB is going to be quite an undertaking, similar to getting Shar and Selűne to play a peaceful game of Monopoly. |

That´s what I guessed as well. Another environment book. I REALLY hope that WotC finally manages to put some more rules, spells, feats and especially PrCs in there. Right now, counting in all the FR-Sourcebooks and Expansions you have just too few options. What really disappoints me is the anouncement of Ancient Empires. Sounds like too much boring backstory for me. Who wants that anyways, huh?
And the "complete" series is about to end after Complete Adventurer? Hopefully they follow up with a "even more complete" series. But by that time they´ll probably have anounced 4th edition...
"Codex Anathema" sounds to me like it would fit in the Draconomicon/Libris Mortis kind of supllement. But "Dagger of Doom"??? |

I was disappointed to see the FR novel releases.... theres nothing in the first quarter other than The Rite which is new. Whats with all the reprints of Spellfire, Crown of Fire, Hand of Fire, Silverfall and The Crystal Shard? Are WotC going to reprint the whole backlist?! This is the third time for Shandril's Saga as it is

Yes, I was suprised as well at the large number of reprints bunched together in the first quarter. Anyone know if EG in his thread has commented on these novels being reprinted? |

| He hasn't; presumably it's just to get them in print as mass market paperbacks, as they should be. |

I'll just stick with facetious for now. Thanks. |

Oh boy,  someone follow the link now. It seems someone at WOTC might have jumped the gun. The page has been updated, taking everything previously listed down and showing just Races of the Wild again.  |

The product page for 2005 has all the the products up again with functioning links.
That's an interesting cover for Resurrection. And I like the cover for Viper's Kiss although I cannot tell who is being featured on it. |

| Ancient Empires looks promising... Codex Anathema: The Book of Aberrations may have potential, as well, but I'll likely wait until I can get that one for a bit cheaper. As far as the novels go, I'm really looking forward to The Rite. |

Ancient Empires and the FR novels are the only things that will be having me spend my cash. |

Well, the Realms stuff is a given. But if I can snag a copy of Codex Anathema on the cheap, I will. I don't think I'm likely to drop more than $20 on it, though. |
