Another Tie-In challenge book completed. It was a whopper, but very entertaining. A D&D Forgotten Realms novel, Evermeet: Island of Elves by Elaine Cunningham. My thoughts are over in my review. For this reading challenge, one of the books I've read is another Forgotten Realms novel: Elminster in Myth Drannor. With this book, I became infatuated with the magical Elvish city called Myth Drannor. In the Elminster book, Myth Drannor is thriving, Elminster falls into a century-long magical slumber, and when he awakes Myth Drannor has fallen and is inhabited by monsters and fiends. The novel doesn't touch on what caused the fall. I want to know what happened. So I purchased a Forgotten Realms gaming module, Pool of Radiance, which is actually set in Myth Drannor. But alas, it is set in post-fall Myth Drannor and had no historical mention of what happened. So I picked up Evermeet, hoping, as it is a history of the Elves in the Forgotten Realms, to find out what happened to Myth Drannor, but the fabled city is mentioned only briefly and what caused its fall is never mentioned. But I will keep seeking and I will find out what happened to Myth Drannor!
