Order of Forgotten Realms Books
The Forgotten Realms stands as an expansive multi-author fantasy series brought to life by Canadian creator Ed Greenwood. Drawing its foundation from the beloved Dungeons & Dragons roleplaying game campaign setting, this literary universe unfolds across Faerûn, a vast continent situated on the world of Abeir-Toril. The series showcases an impressive roster of memorable characters including Artemis Entreri, Arilyn Moonblade, Bruenor Battlehammer, Cadderly Bonaduce, Catti-brie, Danilo Thann, Drizzt Do'Urden, Elminster Aumar, Gareth Dragonsbane, Guenhwyvar, Jarlaxle Baenre, Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun, Regis, Elaith Craulnober, Volo and Wulfgar. The series also connects with the Dragonlance series.
Douglas Niles launched the literary journey in 1987 with Darkwalker on Moonshae, marking the debut Forgotten Realms novel. Since then, numerous talented writers have enriched the series, including Bruce R. Cordell, Chet Williamson, Clayton Emery, Dave Gross, David Wise, Don Bassingthwaite, Drew Karpyshyn, Elaine Cunningham, Erik Scott de Bie, Erin M. Evans, Jaleigh Johnson, James Lowder, James Ward, Jean Rabe, Jeff Grubb, John Maddox Roberts, Kate Novak, Lisa Smedman, Lynn Abbey, Mark Anthony, Mark Sehestedt, Mel Odom, Paul S. Kemp, Philip Athans, R.A. Salvatore, Richard Baker, Richard Lee Byers, Richard Meyers, Rosemary Jones, Scott Ciencin, Thomas M. Reid, Troy Denning and many others.
