Product Description:
Jump into a new adventure by fan-favorite Ed Greenwood!
Florin and his friends have finally made a name for themselves--only to find themselves the pawns of both dark and noble forces in a battle for power. Together, the Swords of Eveningstar must untangle the webs of lies that surround them before the threat to the kingdom eclipses their abilities to defend it.
Swords of Dragonfire is the second title in an exciting new trilogy by best-selling author Ed Greenwood, the creator of the Forgotten Realms setting. This novel is a fast-paced sword and sorcery adventure worthy of a place on your shelves subsequent to Conan and Fafherd and the Gray Mouser.

Having been on a re-reading most of Forgotten Realms kick recently (and just finished a Dragonlance reading kick), I was looking forward to this new series by Realms creator Ed Greenwood.
I was a little disappointed. The books are filled with action, but perhaps not enough grand plot... it feels like you are being constantly whisked from fight to fight.
Not Ed's best, but I guess it is nice to have some background on the Knights.

Im not the biggest Ed Greenwood fan, though I do enjoy his books. I like this series and enjoyed this one, though im a bigger Salvator fan, love his fighting description ;) Characters are a bit flat, main characters anyway, the appearance of the more well known cormyr characters is well done, but they have quite a background already. Overall, 3 out of 5. I enjoyed it enough, to finish the series.

In Swords of Dragonfire, Ed Greenwood continues his Knights of Myth Drannor series featuring the Knights. The very first book in the series is Swords of Eveningstar which is a fantastic novel. This series is suppose to serve as an entry way to read books for Forgotten Realms inspiring readers.
Ed Greenwoods writing to many people is 50/50 you either love it or you hate it, and personally, i love it or atleast really enjoy his weaving of stories. He is able to keep your attention throughout the novel. My only beef with Mr. Greenwood is that he does tend to jump around perspectives a lot but, personally, I enjoy it eitherway. This novel continues the story from where it left off in Swords of the Eveningstar, and it does not fail to catch your attention with how the story proceeds with Florin and the rest of the gang pertaining to their duty bound honor to the kingdom of Cormyr. This story is very interesting as there is a plot to destroy the royal family. I deeply recommend this novel and trilogy for anybody who has read the Shandril trilogy which I am sure that if you liked that series, you will love this trilogy.
Thanks for letting me share my opinion with the rest of you on this novel and hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

There's character development in RA Salvatore's Drizzt novels? Drizzt has been the same prudish teenager dealing with icky girl feelings who's in desperately need to be intimate with a woman to get over the emotional scaring of having his half sister want to jump his bones after graduating the drow equivalent of high school. There's no development in Salvatore novels, I love them, Crystal Shard is my favorite Realms novel ever, but please don't fool people into thinking he writes anything but good hack and slash books.
Swords of Dragonfire is a good follow up Swords of Eveningstar. The Knights are heroes and they've come into their own. Now they must prove themselves worthy to the powers that be in the Realms, proving they're more then meets the eye. Sure there's a lot going on in the book, but if you've ever read any Ed Greenwood book, you know that's the case. Multiple enemies, plotting onto of plotting onto of plotting. Cormyr has a special guest coming, all of Cormyr's enemies are aligned to interfere but they're not working together. The Knights of Myth Drannor quite humorous stumble and foil multiple plots against the crowd while we get a taste of why Elminster is the man and why the super powered leader of these evil organizations of the Realm don't do the handy work themselves.
Read Swords of Eveningstar, read this. You'll enjoy them.

I had a blast reading this novel. It was what I would consider a "Rowdy Romp in the Realms". Fast paced and chock full of action, intrigue and love. Also intertwined with enough sub-plots to keep even the most active readers intrigued and enguaged. I love to see the "little corners" of my favorite characters get fleshed out and filled in.
This represents everything good Fantasy should be. Fun. It leaves you with the feeling of....If only this world were real, what fun it would be!
Full of interesting characters that leave you wanting to know more about them all, the only flaw is too few pages!
If you like fantasy you will love this series.
