review 1: I feel that the author is building up something big for our drow hero, but from time to time I do feel pissed seeing Drizzt spiral down to reckless abandon. It makes me doubt whether he'll actually survive the loneliness that he is wallowing into right now. Mielikki better have a damn good reason for the whole catching all the companions of the hall after they die bit.One of the most unforgettable scene was when Jarlaxe was the one to notice and point out the changes in Drizzt. And of course I'm sad to say good bye to one of the companion of the hall but I have nothing but new found respect for dwarves.Not the best Drizzt novel I've read but still pretty good by my standard. It has it's moments, the introduction of new characters are welcomed. The villains are as daunting... more as any before them. And the few character developments on the recurring characters, I believe is grounded. Now onto the next book of this series...
review 2: Book 1 in the Neverwinter SeriesKinda sad as many of my favorite characters are now dead.King Bruenor Battlehammer of Mithral Hall fakes his own death in order to leave his throne and go look for Gauntlgrym, Drizzt of course goes with him as does Thibbledorf Pwent. When they reach Icewind Dale Pwent realizes he is to old to continue on the adventure and chooses to stay behind, while Bruenor continues the search for Gauntlgrym.Meanwhile Dahlia tricks Athrogate and Jarlaxle into accompanying her to Gauntlgrym and releasing the beast. At the last moment Dahlia regrets the lives that will be lost if the beast is released and tries to stop the plot but Sylora Salm overpowers Dahlia & Jarlaxle and gains control of Athrogate's mind tricking him into pulling the lever and releasing the beast. Jarlaxle promises Athrogate that they will somehow set things right.Jarlaxle learns how to trap the beast and enlist Drizzt and Bruenor's help. Dahlia, Jarlaxle, Athrogate, Bruenor and Drizzt go to Gauntlgrym and overcome all the forces set against them, in order to cage the beast. But one of them will sacrifice his life to see the mission accomplished. less
