FRS1The DalelandsN/AL. Richard Baker III1993Translated into German and reviewed in Envoyer magazine #39.
  • Aurora's Whole Realms Catalog (1992)
  • Cormyr (1994) - Translated into German and reviewed in Envoyer magazine #26.
  • Demihuman Deities (1998)
  • Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark (1999)
Drizzt Do'Urden's Guide to the Underdark was published by Wizards of the Coast, written by Eric L. Boyd, and published in 1999.[9] It details the Underdark in the north and west of Faerûn, including the city of Menzoberranzan. The book has Drizzt Do'Urden as its nominal guide.[9] The guide starts with an introduction that defines the physical boundaries of the Underdark, and also describes the intent and organization of the book and gives a brief list of D&D materials which have a strong connection to the Underdark.[9] A critical review describes it as "...the single-most comprehensive sourcebook on the realms of the Underdark that lie beneath the Sword Coast. It talks about the major peoples of the Underworld and details dozens of cities, including Menzoberranzan". It further states, "...Boyd's extensive research results in Underdark being full of tiny references."[10]
Volo's Guide to the Dalelands details the Dalelands, with its guide Volo taking readers from Daggerdale in the North through to the High Dale in the South.[11] Volo's rating system goes by five pipes or tankards to indicate a top tavern, five coins to mean high prices, and five daggers a dangerous place to hang out.[11] Locations and characters described in the book can be used as foundations on which proper Dalelands scenarios can be built.[11] This is the fifth installment of Volo's guides to the Forgotten Realms.[11] Trenton Webb reviewed Volo's Guide to the Dalelands for Arcane magazine, rating it a 6 out of 10 overall.[11]
