I've created a list for all of the Pre-Time of Trouble books in the order I'll be reading them. If you would like to see what to expect:https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...#
From Time of Troubles to halfway to Spellplague:https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...
*Note* Yes I included the Spelljammer stuff because... come on... it's just cool. I like that it ties the Forgotten realms into pretty much any other world you could want. I consider it a sort of open door to the Dragonlance, Greyhawk, Ravenloft, or Planescape books. So yes, I'm including them.
The rest of the way to Spellplague:https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/1...
*Note* I've heard Rose of Sariafal is really bad. You could read it and Venom in Her Veins before Twilight War series if you want to slide into Spellplague on a high note.
I will definitely throw my thoughts in on the books I have and have read.
Thanks for the list, I was looking for a list like that. I will probably try the same thing but not in there order. I was thinking of picking a writer and going through his/her entire work before moving to the next, in publication order.
Thanks for the list. :) FR really is a special and impressive undertaking by so many talented people.
I started this a while back also but i found a chronological list of every story in the series which included short stories from the ‘Realms of War/Dragons/Shadows etc’ set of books. Got through about 25 books before i had to move onto a different genre. Good luck
I use the Forgotten Realms novel checklist found on www.candlekeep.com and the essential reading timeline composite within that document. I started the same 'challenge' in 2016. I have read Evermeet, the Elminster-trilogy and the Cormyr-trilogy since then. It will take me forever to read every single novel, I am afraid
So far, I've only read RA Salvatore's books (up through the Transitions series, but nothing further). I know not to expect the same level of great writing by all of the other authors, but I'm really interested in getting to know more of the Forgotten Realms.
I thought about making my own group for this endeavor, but I wouldn't reach as many folks as through this group. Hopefully we can get some good discussion going as I read through the books. Anyway, what are your thoughts on this? Does this interest anyone? I'm excited.
