I am not really sure that I can say all that much about this book beyond what the four people who have written reviews on this book have said. It is a shame though because looking at the rating scale on Goodreads it seems that there are a number that actually liked this book, and a few that absolute...
Well, I have two more books to go (both roleplaying products) and a rewrite (that technically doesn't count) and hopefully I will finish the next Secret Seven book tomorrow so I can complete my task of writing a bucket load of commentaries for Goodreads to boost my stats and to see where it puts me ...
Many of these character supplement books were very much hit or miss. The fighter's one was good, as was this one, but I must say that I pretty much ignored the Priest's and the Wizard's handbooks because, well, they did not add all that much to those particular character classes.

It seems that when it comes to the Dungeons and Dragons franchise if you write a book and it is successful you then write a sequel, and because you have written a sequel, you must finish it off with a final book to make it a trilogy.

This was, I believe, the first Forgotten Realms novel that I read, but I guess the reason for that was that it was the first Forgotten Realms novel that was released. I remember a guy from the State Library of South Australia lending it to me because he simply surrounded himself with everything Dung...
For someone who could barely put down the first two books in the trilogy, War of Three Waters was worth reading to finish the series but marginally satisfying on its own merits. Niles had a few fun, original ideas, but overall the plot tends more toward tired cliches and the romance falls flat--the ...

I sortakinda read this and sortakinda liked it. Only a few stories grabbed my attention--the first one, by Elaine Cunningham, and the story about the elven vampire, by Christie Golden. Everything else I skimmed & it was a bit meh, including the new Salvatore story touted on the cover (Jarlaxle & E...
