Boy, do I love the Legend of Drizzt series! I must to have gotten this far, to be sure.
What can I say about this book without spoiling anything? Hmm... Well, the villains are well-established and likable, but I feel that Wulfgar's plot is stretched very thin and it definitely could have been wrapped up in fewer books than what we got. Robillard (Captain Deudermont's wizard) is fleshed out more, which is great since I love that character.
I felt disappointed in the twist, but I, of course, won't go in depth into that.

About the Book: Drizzt, due to the nature of his people, is used to being shunned, feared, hated, and threatened, hunted even. But never before someone stalked and studied him so meticulously for so very long. A wind-like dark memory from the better-forgotten past, and a blade of vengeance stalks the drow, as he pursues his lost friend across the realm, in hopes to see this odd family of friends he made on the surface – whole again.
My Opinion: Either something in the writing is evolving to be getting better, less “old“, or I just missed it very much. The incredibly rich lore, universe that encompasses so very many fantasy works out there, unique and captivating, yet malleable enough to continuously offer more. Good tale, with wonderful fighting scenes. It’s the characters that make it a bit so-so, the weak point. They follow a pretty clear pattern, so there’s nothing new to expect, unless it’s coming from the outside. All choices are made before they’re even presented.

I had a lot more fun with this one compared to the previous. A literary masterpiece this is not, but if you're 13 books in with this series, you know what you're getting, and you'll probably enjoy this particular one.

A happy ending? Not really an ending at all. The usual high-paced fantasy action from Salvatore, underpinned with human depth and the struggle for survival.
