aha! I've found you!!!
anywho, my favorites would have to be just about all of the ones I've read. I love the Song and Swords series (except thornhold. I didn't care for that one much), all of the Drizzt books I've read, and some of the books like Realms of Valor and what not.
i think there's too many to pick just one fav. |

NOBODY likes Thornhold. I think what happened is that Cunningham submitted a draft to the editors, and they said, "Hey, good job. But we want you to end the Harpers series for us." Of course, you can't "end" a loose series like the Harpers that easily. But they were the editors, and so she had to rewrite, and this was the result. It started out alright, but then it went bad. A bit like the life story of that tuna casserole in my fridge . . . . |

Well, I have liked all of the Drizzt books, but if I had to pick one book, I think I'd pick Starless Night by R.A. Salvatore. |

Elaine Cunningham's Elfsong is my favorite. I've yet to find a pairing of protagonists in the Realms collection better than Arilyn Moonblade and Danilo Thann. |

This really is a tough question...
For FR products, id definately say the FRCS! For novels, its a VERY hard choice and I dont think I can really say I have a favorite. I guess its between Shadows Witness, Shattered Mask, Veiled Dragon, Dissolution..... well, you see what i mean! |

Products: Lands of Intrigue, Empires of the Shining Sea, FRCS. A wealth of detail and excellent sources for DMs
Novels: hmmm I'd say currently the Sembia series (excl. Heirs of Prophecy) Though I like Salvatore's books, I don't rate him that much more special then some of the other FR authors. |

So true its hard to pick just one...Curse of the Shadowmage was the very first FR book I read so that one is my fav...hehehe I wont let anyone touch it. (kinda bad huh?)

I`m not lost, my dreams are.
I am one of those people who go through life unseen, but I don`t think of it as a bad thing, no I think of it as an opportunity |

I really, really, really liked "Elminster; Making of a Mage". There, I said it. I don't care what some of you will say.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm, what is my favorite book? That is a hard question considering I only read for school. I would have to say the best book I ever read was the Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire book. That was a great book and I cant wait for the 5th one in the series. |

Hmmm.. I'd have to ditto the Elfsong, but that's only because I haven't read many others yet and it was my first. Jewel of Turmish is my second fav. |
