Rating: Summary: the Halflings gem Review Review: The Halflings Gem is a really good book. Drizzt Do'Urden along with Bruoneor Battlehammer, and Wulfgar, the trio have a really good chance of catching Enitri, The Assisin, who has their buddy, Regis the halfling.
Rating: Summary: Grab food for the next 3 days, You wont leave your home. Review: The last book in the best Fantasy trillogy ever written. The assassing has Regis the halfling, and may kill him. Now Drizzt and his compainions must follow the trail and at a fast pace in order to find their small friend. This is a great book and a great ending to Salvatores first Forgotten Realms series. Awesome book. Buy it.
Rating: Summary: This was the best book ever written by any human ever. Review: This book has a wonderful intruging descriptive plot that can grip your heart in complete terror and complete joy. I must say this book is the best ever written by anyone Ive ever met I believe Salvatore is the best writer on this galaxy I believe if we ever meet life more intelligent than humans they could not compare to Salvatores writings they should replace the bible and he should be given all the writing awards in the world I praise his books on a altar in my room. I love his books so much I stopped reading all other series and will keep reading them until I die
Rating: Summary: The G.U.T. of literature Review: This book is really special, because it is full of battle and sorcery like all fantasy novels, but it also has theme, just in case there is anyone in the world who isn't immediately obsessed with Drizzt Do'Urden. His bad experiences in the Underdark have weighed on his character, and the story of him getting over them while rescuing his friend, fighting his near-equal in sword skill, chasing pirates...the characters are the best. If you don't like the characters and look for Grisham or Clancy-like plots in every book you read, then read Grisham or Clancy and evaluate R.A. Salvatore's work in the context of what he intended it to be. The plot is very simple, and kind of predictable, but the fact is that I supremely enjoyed the book despite this; it should have been a bestseller, and that Salvatore managed to create such a masterpiece with such a simple plot. But you have to like the characters. You have to relate to them. If you can't or don't, you're sunk. Not all of Salvatore's books are this good; this one is special. This is on a par with Tolkien. His other books are just regular, pulpish fantasy. But this is an absolutely wonderful book.
Rating: Summary: Would be good but... Review: This book showed me that Salvatore actually has some potential...he had some good ideas and they sound interesting...BUT:
The thing you have to understand is that this book takes place after Cattie-Brie has recovered Taumaril, "The Heartseeker," yeah real cool name Salvatore you schmuck...anyway Cattie-Brie has Taumaril, and therefore, as a rule, nothing interesting can happen. Do you know why nothing interesting can happen? Because there is never any challenge for our friends "The Companions/Tools of the Hall". For example, let's say they were attacked by the airforce Cattie-Brie would immediately shoot down several planes with her bow, while that cat from another dimension and Drizzt dissappear, only to show up later and destroy whatever's left, while Regis messes himself, Wulfgar cries Tempus and does something stupid, and Bruenor cries stuff like "Girl, get me back Girl!" all the while our beloved friends are talking trash, not having any second thoughts about the carnage they are causing because, hey! They're perfect! Oh except for Cattie-Brie, she hasn't quite mastered the english language yet.
Rating: Summary: Wowie Review: This is a really great book but Artemis was dissapointing he isn't that strong Zaknafein was way stronger but it was the best book ever anyway
Rating: Summary: The conclusion of the trilogy Review: This is the 3rd book out of the Icewind Dale Trilogy, so make sure you read the first two as well, which are The Crystal Shard and Streams of Silver, otherwise this book will leave you confused at times. If you've read the first two and you liked them, then I see no reason why you should not read this one as well.
This was my least favorite book out of the 3 because of several reasons. First it's because the way our heroes run into seemingly inescapable situations but in the end manage to escape is getting rather old. Second, one of the characters [Cattie Brie] posesses a mightly weapon against which foes hardly stand a chance. Third, at times it's hard to follow the fighting scenes because of the way they're described by Salvadore. And finally, I would have liked the dark elf Drizzt to settle his score with his archnemesis, Artemis Entreri. Instead, Artemis escapes.
All in all, the book is well worth reading.
Rating: Summary: Good book, Good read, Good job, Salvatore.....:-) Review: This was may favorite book in the Icewind Dale Trilogy. The first book, I thought, was lacking some maturity. The second was better, but still not there. But the third....... the best one in that series. I hope....if Salvotore writes again.....Drizzt will kick Artemis' butt. The way I see it, Artemis will never stop going after Drizzt. His pride has taken too much of a beating for that. But..any way....the book was never lagging....the plot just flowed right through...and the charactors were just altogether awesome...:-). My favorite part was when Drizzt kissed Catti-brie.and I'm like...'It's about dang time'...but..It hardly got past that until the book 'Starless Night'...but any- way...Salvotore..keep writing..and get those two together...:-)....
Rating: Summary: A great book that i couldnt put down! Review: this was possibly the best book i have ever read. the great characters really got you into the book. this was a great book because it envolved the best villian of all time, Artemis Entereri.
Rating: Summary: Good and Salvatore did do a good job but Review: to me it seemed that the characters were invulnerable. Don't get me wrong, by now his writing style was perfected but from when they started the heroes were killing companies of their enemies. Still it was a very good novel and I d highly recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy.
