There's also "The Crimson Gold" by Voronica Whitney Robinson and "The Simbul's Gift" by Lynn Abbey. Oh, and a great short story in the "Best of Eddie" collection.

A Red Wizard figures fairly prominently in Elminster's Daughter, and Phil Athans Watercourse Trilogy (of which only Whisper of Waves and Lies of Light are out so far) features a Red Wizard acting as a sort of "ambassador" to Innarlith.

There's also the court politics of Mulmaster with the ruler and his Thayan bride in The Mage in the Iron Mask. The book is in the Nobles series and out of print. I can not really recommend it as it is a blatant ripoff of Dumas (and I have not read it in about ten years), but I include it here for completion.

Not fair! Tell us at least something about it <g>. I didn't know we were having another Thayan book. Can't wait.

Will there be a "Realms of the Undead" anthology?

Coulda swore Richard said there was going to be.... hmmm

Yup, April 15, 2006:

"At this point, can't really say any more than I've said already in a previous post: It's set in Thay and will showcase the undead of the Realms in kinda sorta but not really the same way that Year of Rogue Dragons showcases dragons. There's supposed to be a Realms of the Undead tie-in anthology, also."

For some of us, books are as important as almost anything else on earth. What a miracle it is that out of these small, flat, rigid squares of paper unfolds world after world, worlds that sing to you, comfort and quiet and excite you... Books are full of the things that you don't get in real life - wonderful, lyrical language, for instance, right off the bat. - Anne Lamott, Bird by Bird

It's about time the Red Wizards got some better press....cool! Add one more to the "expected sales" quota.

Some people say we gamers have no lives....I think we have too many.

Funny that this thread pops up at this moment, cause just yesterday I stumbled over a sourcebook concerning Thay/Red wizards: Dreams of the Red Wizards for 2nd Ed. published in 1988.

(I know that the inicial question was for NOVELS but I figured it might help anyhow......)

In Ed's Silverfall the Simbul has a brief and violent encounter (as she always does, it seems) with red wizards, as she does in Elminster in Hell, too.
