    [​IMG] Hi. :0) I recently got into the Forgotten Realms, and I am so loving it! The book, "Pools of Radiance: Ruins of Myth Drannor," started it all. From there, I read the entire Elminster series, the Avatar trilogy and just started the sequel. I fell in love with Mystra, Elminster, the Srinshee, the Simbul, and Myth Drannor. What else can I read that includes Mystra and Elminster? On what happened to Myth Drannor? on How Elminster got to Hell to begin with? In the Avatar trilogy, they mention a place other than "Avernus" into where El opened to rift, so I was not sure if that was how he got there. Can anyone make suggestions, please?

    As cool as Myth Drannor is, I can't see how you could like that book.
    Maybe if your interested in Toril in general you might want to look at the Forgotten Realms Handbook

    MoonlitMystery, check out http://www.sorcerers.net/Books/index_fr.php where you have all the FR novels listed. You read most of what has Elminster in prominently already, though. But still, he appears in many other novels there to a lesser extent.

    Shandril's Saga, Stories of the Seven Sisters and The Cormyr Saga would be a good pick.
