Realms of Mystery gathers original short fiction built around puzzles, disappearances, and things left half-hidden in Faerûn rather than open battle — Forgotten Realms authors working in a lighter, whodunit register. Edited by Philip Athans, it's a change of pace from the setting's usual sword-and-sorcery fare for readers who want their mysteries solved by wit as much as steel.
