DM, unlike Forgotten Realms, TSR never used the Greyhawk setting to sell books and vice-versa. Only Gygax as far as I know, and I believe this was after his TSR days, wrote stories set in this world. However, in the last 2 years or so there have been a number of novels published based on the old modules dating from the late 70s and early 80s. These new novels are called Greyhawk Classics and can be purchased at Amazon.com I believe you can link to Amazon.com through Sorcerer's Place. As for the quality of writing I haven't a clue, but it is worth a shot, plus they should give you a good look at this campaign setting. Again, the book titles are taken from the the titles of old 1st Edition TSR modules (or a close fact similie) and the plot, as far as I know, is directly from the modules. Here are the books that I found. The first 5 I have personally seen, but only played White Plume Mountain.

The Tomb of Horrors
Keep on the Borderlands
Against the Giants
The Temple of Elemental Evil
White Plume Mountain
Descent into the Depths of the Earth
Queen of the Demonweb Pits

I hope this helps. Let me know how they read.

What's the point of making another post with the same essence as this at http://www.sorcerers.net/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=16;t=000323 where you even replied? The link I provided in that post ( http://www.sorcerers.net/Books/index_grey.htm ) lists all of those novels.

I don't know if this post was made to circumwent the reply to your own post prevention or what. If so, go edit your last post in the topic to include this information. But don't open new topics instead.
