I've read Flying Dutch, and I quite enjoyed that one.  |

If it was for a dark and intriguing novel, I would vote for Wolfgang Holbein... the only problem is that he's a german 
oh and I would love to read a FR novel from Terry... pretty much the funniest book of the Realms ever to be written
I also like Peter S Beagle's novels and his style, but I don't know whether his... hm... let's call it "impressionistic" style would suit the Realms that well |
It is all just a past and future secret

| Brian Lumley of Necroscope fame...but then again I like the darker stuff where the heroes don't always win. ;) I really wish the WOTC novels would stop using the comics code on what can and can't be in their books. |

I'll agree with you there, on both the author suggestion and about the code for the various WotC books. But we have to remember that younger child sometimes purchase or read WotC books from their local gaming store, or at the local library -- so the code, for the most part, is necessary.
As an aside though, I'd like to see Lumley's interpretation of Szass Tam.
