Hello All,

I have just started reading "Dissolution" the first in the War of the Spider Queen series and was hoping someone could tell me when it is set? In DR and after/before other novels?

Thanks In Advance

Eleasias 28th, 1372 is when Lloth first goes silent. The first three books of the series are dated on page 170 in the Player's Guide to Faerun.

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

Along with the events of the month of Ukta.

(That remains one of my fave typos! )

And Rich Baker provided a very vague (my guess is Rich didn't want to elaborate further at the time he replied) reference about the length of time for WotSQ itself from the "Ask the FR Designers" thread over at WotC:-

"It's never been specifically stated. Most estimates place it between a half year to just under, or maybe a little longer than a year."

Also, a number of scribes have been attempting to plot the events of the WotSQ on a timeline here:- http://forum.candlekeep.com/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7930&whichpage=3

Be warned however that this scroll does contain SPOILERS for the WotSQ books.
