(I have almost all Forgotten Realms books, but I dread reading the Ed Greenwood ones. After reading the Elminster series years ago, of which "Elminster in Hell" was the worst, I've come to the conclusion that this guy can't write to save his life... even though he is the principal inventor of the Forgotten Reams.)

Maybe that's why they're "Forgotten".
Some people are capable of creating all the background info and history for these detailed worlds and great characters but when it actually comes time to write the story it's like all that creative ability just dries up and blows away. I have a best friend like that. I've started mentally cringing every time I hear the words, "Can you take a look at this story for me?"
