Summary

The epic tale of everyone's favorite dark elf, Drizzt Do'Urden, reaches new heights!

Drizzt Do'Urden struggles with his own inner voices, voices that call him back to the pitiless depths of the Underdark. But louder still are the voices of his newfound friends, and the dream that drives Bruenor Battlehammer on to reclaim Mithral Hall. Time and again they're told to turn back, that some dreams can never be fulfilled, but on they fight - together.

Like a bad rip-off of The Hobbit...

I'll try to be a little fair here... D&D in general is heavily influenced by Tolkien.
THAT SAID... when the plot consists of a quest to recover an ancestral dwarven city full of treasure and guarded by a dragon, and the journey involves a dangerous climb through the mountains, a respite in a goofy village and then a really dark, dangerous and murky place... not to mention that there is an actual hobbit ("halfling") with a dangerous artifact along for the journey... then you know you've got a little bit out of "influenced" territory and well into "I can't write my own plots" territory.

Couple that with RAS's usual all-explaining, zero-tension writing style and dull, monotonous combat... and what you end up with is a really bad knock-off of The Hobbit.

I guess I shouldn't be too hard on him for the terribly boring combat descriptions. It reads like typical D&D combat, but with the endings to every encounter just that little bit contrived to ensure extra predictability. There is no flow to it. It is clunky, sequential and oh so very tedious. I actually fell asleep on the train listening to the description of a fight scene and when I woke up about 15 minutes later it was still going on and I hadn't missed anything important.

I'd rather be playing D&D myself... These are hours of my life I will never get back.

A great listen for any DM

Running dnd campign in fearun, the location descriptions alone make the listen. The assain as the mirror of a main character will be an element i use in my games, or i am a bearded gnome.

Fantastic, didn't want it to end

I've been following this series along now for a while. Being a fan of DnD from my childhood, and having played Baldaur's Gate the characters are well known to me so I feel a great connection to each of them. Fantastic and moving onto the next now!! haha

Far superior to its predecessor

A much better written and well paced book, this is a stunning improvement over the shambling mess that was the Crystal shard. A little derivative of the hobbit in places but ultimately a fantastic read for any dnd nerd.

Another amazing story

Salvatore has perfection in his art of story telling so that he keeps you hooked constantly. Even all these years since first reading this trilogy I'm gripped by the story.

Great!

Loving the whole world of drizzt so far. excellently performed by B.B. I really enjoy the complexities of the characters and the fact that the whole world is properly fleshed out, not just shaded in to suit the story.
