The tale of the Knights of Myth Drannor (along with that of the Company of Crazed Venturers) is the crucible and ur-story of the Realms, analogous to Greyhawk's castle and dungeons. Realms novels have danced around the Knights for all this time -- novels starring characters not intended as protagonists, novels not even written for the Realms in the first place or written by people with no feel for the setting, contrived and gimmicky trilogy ideas, Earth analogues, etc. etc. -- I've personally been looking forward to these books for 16 years and was delighted when they was announced: because Ed gets to write them, we get to read them, and for what it says about the Wizards books department's respect for the integrity of created worlds.</blockquote>
