Are there any Forgotten Realms books that take place off-Toril, or is Toril the primary location for most of the pantheon’s activity and civilization in general? |

I find myself admiring the philosophical depth of thy signature. Well met, fellow scribe.
Hail and well met, and thank you! Somewhat appropriate a signature given the topic of this thread.  |

Many thanks, milord. |

The only planet other than Toril that I can think of is Abeir. The only novel I remember at the moment making a short visit to Abeir was one of the Brimstone Angels series. |

Besides a couple of scenarios like Undermountain: Stardock taking place in the Tears of Selûne and scattered references to illithids hailing from Glyth and beholders hailing from H'Catha, the game books don't fare much better (excepting Realmspace, of course).
Thanks to both Wooly Rupert and yourself for the light shed on the matter. Your information is invaluable. |

Planes have always been a big deal in D&D. Planets aside from the game world's main one? Not so much. I don't think planets were touched on at all, aside from the Spelljammer novels. |

The Empyrean Odyssey takes place a lot in the upper planes.
Other than that there are a lot of stories where a minor part takes place in another plane.
My apologies, I should clarify- I mean on planets within Realmspace other than Toril. |
