Not bad for a Drizzt novel as Salvatore raises the stakes considerably, scoping out to look at a massive conflict between Drow and above-ground civilizations. As usual, the Drow villains are more interesting than the Drow hero and his boring "good guy" companions. ( ) As opposed to my other Drizz't" reads by Salvatore, I actually enjoyed this read. And halfway through I realized why. Salvatore stopped writing about specific characters and got into "Big battle" mode. I realized Salvatore can't do characterization worth a tinker's pot. His characters are 2D, flat, boring, unemotional, etc, etc, which is why I did not like the previous books. I enjoyed the battle, a lot. So while this was going to be my last "Drizz't" book, I think I'll give Salvatore another chance at Redemption [not that I'm holding out much hope mind you]." no reviews | add a review
