D&D 4e Narrative books on Nentir Vale?

[Alzrius]

The 2nd (Oath of Vigilance) novel in the series is written by James Wyatt - known for his work on the Eberron Campaign setting and the terrific novel, City of the Spider Queen.

Forgive my nitpicking, but City of the Spider Queen (affiliate link) is an adventure module, not a novel.

Ah, my bad. I was somehow confusing that adventure with a novel I'd read. If memory serves me correctly I did play in that adventure, but it was a long time ago - at least 2 decades.

Wow, I missed this topic. The others have already recommended you the Abyssal Plague trilogy, but that trilogy has a prequel, The Mark of Nerath, that serves as a introduction to the characters and the Nentir Vale as well...

I have it, but didn't mention it because I found the quality of writing in it below the trilogy and consequently never finished it. TMoN does contain a lot of lore though and I found myself reading parts of it when I ran my campaign set in the Old Hills of the vale.

Yeah, the quality of this novels left much to be desired. However, it has a particularity that (for me, at least) makes it a must read: the material that was done for the cancelled "Nentir Vale Gazetteer" was used as a basis for this novel. So, lots of stuff to be salvaged, lol

I’m assuming you included that in your fantastic write up of Nentir Vale?

Yes, of course
