About this ebook

In this third adventure in the Forgotten Realms series, Elminster the mage must make a choice that will change the Realms forever

Emerging at last from a lengthy imprisonment in a dark and dusty tomb, Elminster seeks the guidance of Mystra, the Mother of all Magic. With Mystras's wisdom in his ears, Elminster sets forth on an adventure that leads him to the mysterious and sinister Lady of Shadows, and a Realms-shaking confrontation. With temptations all around him, the mage must make the most important choice of his long life, a choice that will leave the Realms forever changed.

I've read this book before, and while the plot late in the first half becomes difficult to track (the only conclusion that I can draw is "Dasumia" is supposedly an evil sorceress [who convincingly professes to be a follower of Bane] apparently created by Mystra to test Elminster's loyalties), it reads (during the second half) like a precursor to the Godsfall & the Tablets Of Fate series in which the gods are banished to Toril in human form, until order is restored. A good time-killer.
