    Do they worth buying?I mean we have to wait until July to buy paperback ones,so i don't want to waste 20 dollars for a book like Sea of Swords(which sucks IMO).Most of you say that The Thousand Orcs is really good,and in one of the topics it is said that War of the Spider Queen is good too.Also i want to buy the Avatar Trilogy too(Shadowdale,Tantras,Waterdeep),also do they worth buying?
    Hm and what do you say about Dragons of a Fallen Sun,Lost Star and Vanihed Moon.

    Yea, Elminster is also in and out in those books, but not the main character. You get to see him often enough in Shadowdale and Waterdeep though.
