1.0 out of 5 stars Single worst book I have ever read., October 19, 2009
This review is from: Pools of Darkness (Forgotten Realms Fantasy Adventure) (Paperback)
I was always a big fan of the Forgotten Realms series, but thought the novelisation of Pool of Radiance(one of my alltime favourite games) was terrible.

This book goes beyond terrible.

The introduction has the supreme lord of evil blasting his minions with comicbook sound-effects *zzzzapppp!* *pow-eeeeww!* until one of his cohorts tells him, in what appears to be a Brooklyn accent, that he has to 'show them bums' (I'm not making this up) the extent of his true power. What follows is a collection of wretchedly concieved, poorly written cliches twisted into a vague semblence of a plot that is largely implausible even in a fantasy universe. I gave up reading the book after forcing myself to halfway.

Pure garbage.

4.0 out of 5 stars I think it's a pretty good book!, March 17, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Pools of Darkness (Forgotten Realms Fantasy Adventure) (Paperback)
This was the first 'FR' book I read and I thought it was pretty good over all. It has a good cast of charactors and they are easy to like. If you are like me and did not read 'Pool of Radiance' first, then you still will be able to very easily follow this book when you read it. This book goes at a good pace. The fights are OK, I like how the characters are not always put in a fight were it's always a hundred to one and they still some how amazingly come out on top with little more then a small bump on there heads. If you are new to fantasy or are an old pro and don't need to worry about every last detail of a book to enjoy it then I would say that this is a good book to read.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great book for begginers., May 6, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Pools of Darkness (Forgotten Realms Fantasy Adventure) (Paperback)
I have read many Forgotten Realms books and I rate this one as a little above average becauuse although it did not sell very well it is a good book for those people just beginning their descent into the Realms. In fact the whole trilogy was my first. Although the other books are diffuclt to understand this one is not. Fare thee well wherever thee fare.
