I was going through my collections of FR novels yesterday when I realised to my horror that I was missing one. I was actually missing a FR novel from my - what I thought was complete - collection.

It is the Realms anthology Realms of the Deep. I have now undertaken the necessary steps to obtain this book, but until that time, I was just hoping someone here could provide me with some basic run-downs of the stories inside the book.

Anyone not wishing to know the contents of this book which they may not have read yet, understand that this is a possible SPOILER WARNING!!!.

Thanks all in advance.

Phew! Lucky that you snapped that up quick, Sage. Alaundo will have you sweeping the floors for ever more if he heard that you had a tome missing from your personal collection of Realmslore

I havent read any of the stories but I quite enjoyed the Threat from the Sea Trilogy so id also be interested to hear if the anthology is any good.

if I remember correctly, most of the stories in Realms of the Deep fit in before the third book in the series. I could be thinking of Realms of Shadow, though. All in all, if you liked the Threat from the Sea trilogy then you should enjoy Realms of the Deep.

yeah, most of the stories are just side-stories before the third book. Though i would read it before the third book, as there is a story dealing with the sea-elf looking sahuagin woman and a mission she goes on before the third book that gets mentioned in the third book... that makes you go "Huh?" if you didn't read the short story.

Thanks for the information people.

As it happens, I did read the series, and at times I did go "Huh?". But "Realms of the Deep should be arriving tomorrow, so that won't be a problem for much longer.

Good learning...
