The Halls of Stormweather
Edited by Philip Athans.
The Greatest Fantasy Setting of Our Generations Begins Here
Sembia is a land of wealth and power, where rival families buy and sell everything imaginable – even life itself.
In that unforgiving realm, the Uskevren family may hold the rarest commodity of all: honor.
But even they have their secrets, and at least as many enemies.
This anthology of seven stories introduces not just one realm of good and evil, not just one family of troubled heroes, but the whole of the remarkable Forgotten Realms world. Their adventure, and yours, begins here.
Featuring Forgotten Realms creator Ed Greenwood and The New York Times best-selling authors Lisa Smedman and Paul S. Kemp. Also featuring Clayton Emery, Dave Gross, Voronica Whitney-Robinson, and Richard Lee Byers.
