Summary: Pretty good
Comment: It's true I have less respect for Salvatore than other sci-fi/fantasy writers like C.S. Lewis and Douglas Adams, because he uses the D&D world. Most of his adventures are indeed much like D&D campaigns, but the main reason the books are so jam-packed with fighting is because everyone hates Drizzt and he has to fight all the time, and guys like Artemis Entreri (THE MAN) and Jarlaxle just like to fight. There is a plot to all of these battles: Read the Dark Elf Trilogy first and then the Icewind Dale Trilogy, and then the Legacy. Drizzt has a history of not getting along with Entreri, and the whole thing with the Spider Queen was pretty good too. For those of you who thought this book had no plot, it was probably because it was the first one you read and actually a continuation of a plot that you never got because you never read the earlier stuff, which is excellent. Most of you couldn't write anything better, and even if you did there would be someone in the world who hated it. I know people who hate Ender's Game. Hey, I know people who hate the original STAR WARS stuff.

Summary: The Story Continues
Comment: This book picks up where the Icewind Dale Trilogy left off. To truly enjoy the enormity of what is going on it is helpful to read the Dark Elf Trilogy. Catti-brie and Wulfgar are getting married and all of the heroes of Icewind Dale have returned to see the momentous occasion. Even Regis has returned from Caliport. But Drizzt's enemies are many and they have a tendency to turn up when you least expect it. Drizzt's surviving brother and sister, Vierna and Dinin, are back to slay Drizzt in the name of the spider queen, Lloth. And they have many allies. Will Catti-brie and Wulfgar get married? Why has Regis returned from Caliport? And more importantly what role does Artemis Entreri play in this sinister plot? Well I guess you'll just have to read the book to find out. Here's another hook that might get your attention. The Legacy does not have a happy ending......one of heroes of Icewind Dale will not make it out of the Undercity of Mithril Hall.
Rating: 5
Summary: The best Drizzt book period.
Comment: This is the best Drizzt book yet. After returning to Mithril Hall the companions get little time to rest and prepare for Wulfgar and Cattie-Brie's wedding when the dark elves come hunting their long lost brother. We see the way the dark elves take to battle and fighting outside our small perception given by Drizzt. This book is astounding in the methods of battle and fighting. I still don't understand how Salvatore continues to write great fighting scenes. The war against the drow begins in this book and continues through "the Legacy of the Drow" series.
With the reuniting of old friends, the introduction of new friends, and the plotting of old enemies with clever plans, this book deserves all five stars just because of these elements and a pace that does not slow down until the last few pages. In fact, this book all takes place in less than a day. This book also has unforgivable sad moments that only give credit to the author for making his characters more realistic, however sad that conclusion brings. I will never forgive Salvatore for the way this book ends, but that only gives tribute to how much passion he can deliver in simple text.
Let the swordplay dazzle you and the enemy scare you, but whatever you do, don't stop reading this book.
