Project Realms Reads discussion

We've read a couple Drizzt books and I noticed that Wizards of the Coast posted this today, I thought it was very cool! Excellent narration and animation:

That. Is. Awesome. I skipped the Generations trilogy, so I wonder if readers should get through those before picking up Starlight Enclave: A Novel .

Thanks for sharing that, Raechel. I loved it!

Wow, I didn't realize there were still Drizzt books being released! I'm curious to see how much they've changed over the years.

I thought everything about the video was great, though it's a bit odd that Regis isn't shown. Maybe he plays a lesser part later on in the novels.

Unless I'm mistaken I think the Drizzt books are the only FR novels still being released. I think the most recent non-Drizzt book was released in 2016

The "Sleep Sound" video is part of the media campaign to promote the Starlight Enclave novel, the Dark Alliance video game, and the Drizzt & Guenhwyvar Pulse action figures. And regarding Regis's absence, I commented on that in the video's thread: the novel and video game present fierce, powerful heroes and Regis does not fit the modern heroic stereotype anymore. He became non-existent after The Companions (where his character was an absurd, almost offensive, Italian analogue stereotype).

Nailed it! Erin Evans wrapped up her Brimstone Angels series with The Devil You Know in October 2016. The last five years have been all Drizzt all the time. Looks to be that way for the foreseeable future.
