anyone ever read anything by this guy? I know he does a lot of those Forgotten Realms books. I picked up 3 of his books for a quarter apiece yesterday. They were part of a series called "Spearweilders Tale". I got:

The Wood's Out Back
The Dragons Dagger
Dragonslayers Return

No I haven't. Is it a FR  series? I really only pay attention to Forgotten Realms,  DragonLance, Dark Sun and Ravenloft books.

I have read the rest you listed.  The series that Exile and Sojourn are in is a great series.

The Crystal Shard that is part of the Icewind Dale series came out first but the Dark Elf series is a prequel to teh Icewind Dale series.

Same here.  I say go with the Drizzt saga, which it appears you have some of.  There are 17 books in it (I think) and all that I have read have been awesome.

I actually picked up a pre-release copy of Sea of Swords today.

I've yet to read anything by Salvatore but it sounds like he's one of the big guns in the sci-fi/fantasy realm.

Powels book store.  This place is fucking huge; it takes up an entire block.  I was originally looking for the rest of the Drizzt saga, but then I saw the pre-release and picked it up instead.

He doesn't even write his books anymore. He gets ghost writers to do it.
