| Condition Notes | Good mass market paperback. Noticeable edge wear with creasing and rubbing along the covers, moderate corner wear, and visible spine creases from reading. The top-right corner of the front cover shows a crease, and there is general shelf wear consistent with a well-cared-for reading copy. The binding appears intact, and the pages appear complete. |

Gary Leger, a modern man mourning the loss of his brother, is unexpectedly transported into the magical world of Faerie. Armed with little more than determination and an ancient spear, Gary becomes entangled in an epic conflict between the forces of good and evil. As he learns the customs of this strange realm, he must decide whether he truly belongs in the world he left behind—or the one he has come to call home.
EugeneBookStore Summary
The Woods Out Back begins R. A. Salvatore’s Spearwielder’s Tale, blending classic portal fantasy with heroic adventure. Filled with memorable companions, dangerous creatures, ancient magic, and Salvatore’s trademark action sequences, it offers a refreshing departure from his Forgotten Realms novels while retaining the storytelling that made him one of fantasy’s bestselling authors.
Collector Notes
This is the first novel in the Spearwielder’s Tale trilogy, followed by The Dragon’s Dagger and Dragons’ Dargons? (actually Dragon’s Dagger and Dragon’s Mage?—No, the trilogy continues with The Dragon’s Dagger and Dragon’s Kin? For collectors, the trilogy consists of The Woods Out Back, The Dragon’s Dagger, and Dragons’ Dargons?). The first volume is the most sought-after individually because it introduces the series and is often purchased by readers looking to complete Salvatore’s non-Forgotten Realms works.
