2.0 out of 5 stars Not what we were waiting for... SPOILERS, 1 Dec 2008
Ed, Ed where for art thou Ed? This isn't what we'd hoped for from the creator of the Forgotten Realms, the very bard himself. I can understand the apathy after what they did to your, heck OUR, beloved Realms in the name of crass commerce, but this outing, indeed all of the books in the trilogy read as more of a *insert name of lesser author here* writing in the style of Ed Greenwood than an offering from the master himself. Contractions? Check. More characters with odd names than one can keep track of? Check. Lesser people speaking their minds to important people and those important people thereby learning? Check. Everyone laughing when that happens except the protagonists? Check? Elminster being irascible? Check.

It's all there, but it doesn't flow, it has no soul and the characters, should I say caricatures?, just don't seem to matter; they seem to be actors playing the Knights and not the Knights themselves, it all feels somehow empty. As to the characters where are they? Merith Strongbow, Lanseril Snowmantle, Illistyl Eleventree, Sharantyr, Mourngrym Amcathra and Shaerl Rowanmantle do not appear in the trilogy. I'll say that again as it may defy belief on the first reading; they don't appear. Torm and Rathan Thentraver are bit parts! You see I've been moved to the use of an exclamation mark in my disbelief. It's arguable that Torm and Rathan are two of the best of the Realms, let alone Ed's stable and they have about three lines each.

It even has stlarning continuity errors for Oghma's sake: Why is Vangerdahast kitting up in a mage's panoply only to sit behind a desk? Poor show Ed. The thing is Ed Greenwood is such a competent writer. He's a man who can not only create a world, but can convey it in rich detail in way which so few other Realms writers can, this tripe is not worthy of him. I recommend his other work, or that of the ever improving R. A. Salvatore.

Sweet water and light laughter then,

1.0 out of 5 stars No, no, no and no, 3 Jun 2009
By B. Patrik (Finland) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: The Sword Never Sleeps (Forgotten Realms: The Knights of Myth Drannor) (Mass Market Paperback)
Sorry to say but I could not recommend "The knights of myth drannor" series to anyone.

I don't even know where to start! Personally I love entertainment from the fantasy genre and forgotten realms, and I do not go into much detail about how the book was written etc.. I just enjoy the ride. This is actually the first ever review I have bothered to make just to warn people to not go near this series. It's actually a pain to try to finnish this crap.

The "knights" stumble into "trap" after trap, that solves itself because badguys keep stumbling over each other - This actually describes all 3 books more or less - NO KIDDING!

I have read maybe 80 forgotten realms books, but this is the first time ever I am angry at a book and have a hard time finnishing it. The third book was realy a pain... I will never read anything from Ed Greenwood again, thats for sure!

For example, RA Salvatore is lightyears ahead of Ed now in writing.
