Books From The Backlog: The City of Splendors (Forgotten Realms: The Cities #4) Ed Greenwood and Elaine Cunningham

 

Happy Thursday everyone! Welcome back to Books from the Backlog, the weekly linkup I'm taking part of which is hosted by Carole's Random Life in Books.  This is a great way to put a spotlight on books that I've had sitting on my shelf for awhile.  I don't know when I'll get to my weekly featured book, but I hope to some time hopefully soon.

This Week's Neglected Book:

The City of Splendors (Forgotten Realms: The Cities #4) Ed Greenwood and Elaine Cunningham

Published: 2005

Genre: Fantasy 

My Copy:

Where I Acquired It: Yard sale

Summary (From Goodreads):

In the streets of Waterdeep, conspiracies run like water through the gutters, bubbling beneath the seeming calm of the city's life. As a band of young, foppish lords discovers there is a dark side to the city they all love, a sinister mage and his son seek to create perverted creatures to further their twisted ends.

Why Did I Add It?

It's been awhile since I've read Forgotten Realms books, but seeing Dungeons & Dragons: Honor Among Thieves reminded me of how much I liked spending time in that world in past. Plus, the books in this series all feature standalone stories set in different cities in that world.

Have you read this or would you read it?  Would you recommend it to me?  As always, thanks for visiting my blog and perhaps even commenting down below!
