5.0 out of 5 stars They're being reprinted soon!, September 15, 2010

I greatly enjoyed & still enjoy this entire series. I bought the first two books (in their U.S. "Quest" editions) years ago, and gradually acquired Books 3-6 (in the UK "Fabled Lands" edition) from eBay. Per an announcement this week on the Fabled Lands blog, the first 6 books will be reprinted (as mass-market paperbacks @ $7.99 each) in early 2011, and will be available from Amazon.com. If those show decent sales, Books 7-12 will then finally be published for the first time, in the same format.
Also, if you've always wanted to have a group of friends adventure in the Fabled Lands together, an RPG based on the Fabled Lands books is also coming out in early 2011 (further details on the Fabled Lands blog; a Google/Yahoo search for "Fabled Lands blog" will get you there quickly enough). Woo hoo!

My wife found this in a clearance rack at our local Safeway store and thought I might like it. I actually forgot about it until 2 months later. I was drawn into it last week, and could not put it down. I think it is a wonderful role-playing adventure. I only have this one, and am searching for more books. There was a web-site that had the entire series, but it was taken off the web. If anyone can, please let me know where I can find more in the series. Thank you!
