Seldarine! Wooly you're right. It's just sad that the Realms book writers don't get more exposure that they deserve. Look at all the great stories they come up with! I say most of them are better than those so called "classics" that they are pushing in classrooms. Oh, if I ever have to read 'Their Eyes are Watching God' ever again I'll scream for a week straight! And then grab City of Ravens to regain my sanity.
I can agree with that! I somehow managed to avoid most of the "classics" that are forced upon students. I'm not sure how it happened; I just know it wasn't anything deliberate on my part. But the classics I did read left me wondering just how these books became "classic"! |

Thay + Undead = Zombies and Szass Tam |
When hinges creak in doorless chambers and strange and frightening sounds echo through the halls, whenever candlelights flicker where the air is deathly still, that is the time when ghosts are present, practicing their terror with ghoulish delight. |

kalin: I have to confess, I haven't read much Ravenloft fiction, so I honestly don't know if The Haunted Land will give off a similar vibe. I can tell you the tone will be a tad dark. |
