Ed Greenwood Guide, Meaning , Facts, Information and Description

Ed Greenwood is a Canadian librarian who invented the Forgotten Realms Dungeons & Dragons; campaign setting.

Ed Greenwood and Jeff Grubb together penned the Forgotten Realms Campaign Boxed Set in 1987, for TSR - though Greenwood had used the Forgotten Realms for his home Dungeons & Dragons campaign since 1975. The spawned campaign world was a success, and he has been involved with all subsequent incarnations of the Forgotten Realms in D&D. Probably Greenwood's most lasting character from the setting is the wizard Elminster.

Since the release of the Forgotten Realms, Greenwood has published many Forgotten Realms novels, as listed below. He retains certain rights of his setting, but is essentially a freelance author.
