Summary: Great pice of fantasy.
Review: This book is really a masterpiece for the fantasy fan. You should read the "The Dark Elf"-trilogy and then the "Icewind Dale"-trilogy first, by the same author, though. Have a nice reading (if you buy the book of course).

Summary: A True Masterpeice!
Review: You just can't go wrong with R.A. Salvatore, especially when Drizzt is involved. The Drizzt saga is like a bible to me. The Legacy of the Drow was particularily enjoyable. The companions of the hall suffered such hardships as no one deserves. Drizzt learning more and more the curse of his heritage. Each of the companions comes to more strongly understand their own mortality and their devotion to one another.
The true cruelty of the drow becomes well known as drizzt is hunted for his crimes against Lloth.
This is an excelent read. A tale comparible to the works of the father of fantasy, J.R.R. Tolkien. Good job Mr. Salvatore and keep the masterpeices coming.

Summary: Salvatore just seems to get better with age...
Review: Authors seldom maintain the same quality of writing throughout their entire career. They either splash onto the scene with an outstanding work that proves to be their best, or they creep out, honing their skill as time goes on. Salvatore isn't a literary genius, but the more he writes, the better he gets. Unlike Robert Jordan, who can't seem to sustain the energy or interest level in his plodding, soap-opera like epics, Salvatore keeps things simple, fast, and enjoyable. Yet, at the same time, his flagship character, Drizzt Do'Urden, only seems to become deeper and more interesting as he matures. In "Legacy of the Drow", Salvatore takes the characters and plot threads introduced in "Icewind Dale" and the "Dark Elf Trilogy" and runs them through a thousand-page wringer. Starting with "The Legacy", we are re-introduced to Drizzt's sinister family. In the books that follow, Salvatore seemingly puts the characters through every close call and near defeat he can, finally wrapping up the books in a touching rescue/showdown where Drizzt is forced to face defeat, only to see victory ripped from it's jaws at the last moment. The author pulls off the necessary dramatic tension and pacing to keep the reader hanging on his every word and glued to the book through the whole wild ride. "Legacy of the Drow" is far darker than the merry romp of "Icewind Dale", and the reintroduction of the Drow was every bit as scary as the foreshadowing in "The Dark Elf Trilogy" promised. Of course, the books have some weaknesses. Drizzt's family members are under-used and quickly disposed of, much like the villains in Salvatore's plodding, overly-derivative "Cleric Quintet". Characters from the Quintet were introduced to the series in a relatively heavy-handed fashion, and some characters felt under-utilized (Gromph Baenre, Gandalug Battlehammer, and Berkthgar the Bold, especially). Salvatore's writing, while better than his previous works, still lacks the detail that characterizes the works of the best fantasy authors. All in all, however, if you liked the first six books in Drizzt's saga, you'll love these four. Throw on a nice dark soundtrack, grab a drink, and enjoy the ride.

Summary: Great Quartet
Review: This story is great if you've just read the Icewind Dale Trilogy and are hungering for more. The battle scenes are described in such detail it is as if (for the more imaginative) that you can see the battle unfolding. You are able to find out mre about Drizzt's past, and if you haven't read DE Trilogy then you will learn much more about Zaknafein. More interesting artifacts come into play, and toys once thought lost forever will be found again by different people. You will learn more about infernal creature's hierarchy if you don't play some version of D&D. Also, if in some RPGs you have met Do'Urden you will be surprised at the difference in his power in the book and power in the game (you thought he was easy to beat by throwing up a monster wall and shelling him? The machine doesn't give him credit)New characters and new traits in old ones will appear and make he story much more interesting.(To quote one of them, " Eeeee!")

Summary: Great adventure
Review: This four book series continues the adventures of R.A. Salvatore's best known characters: Drizzt, Catti-Brie, Wulfgar, Bruenor, and Regis. It picks up where Icewind Dale left off, but it does help to have read the Dark Elf Trilogy, which predates Icewind despite its later publishing date. As the title of this collection suggests, the Drow are up to their usual nasty tricks, which does not bode well for our heroes. Mr. Salvatore is well known for his light humor, thrilling pace, and detailed descriptions. These qualities shine in the Legacy series, which represents some of his best work. For those who can't get enough of Drizzt, this leads directly into the Paths of Darkness novels, which in turn lead into the new Hunter's Blades books. Out of all the Forgotten Realms novels published, it can't be denied that these are the most popular and well known. If you haven't read any of them, you're seriously missing out. For those that have read the Cleric Quintet and wondered what the heck happens after the ending, you'll see some form of conclusion in this series as Drizzt & Co. make a brief stop-over in the Snowflake Mountains. Without revealing too much of the plot, it spans a vast portion of Faerun's surface, but largely centers on Drizzt's most favored places- Mithril Hall and Icewind Dale. It is a pleasure for the reader (if not the hero) to once again see such villainous villains as Artemis Entreri, Jarlaxle, and the remnants of Drizzt's evil heritage coming back to haunt him. The pace doesn't slacken throughout the series, and you'll find it hard to set this collection down.

Summary: Lots of fighting-needs more of a plot
Review: As much as I love Salvatore, I have to say that this book really needs more of a plot. The plot there is is very good, and I enjoyed it. But there were lots of fight scenes. While Salvatore is a great author, and he does fighting scenes very well, I think he needs to try adding a few not-so-sword-and-dagger scenes.
It's got plenty of humor, too, though (a certain new dwarf character for example), and some strange goblin things. But there is also something to learn about our favorite characters, Regis in particular. If you want to know what I'm talking about, read the book!!!

Summary: wonderful story, great vocabulary, terrible technique
Review: This massive tome incorporates a whole series of books about the battle of a Forgotten Realms dwarf-kingdom, and specifically a number of great characters, with the wicked Drow of the Underdark. There's a lot of great adventure, and the characters are quite well developed. The author handles the emotional byplay with good credibility, and no one has yet painted as evocative a picture of the evil dark elves and the renegade they seek to bring back for sacrifice. So what's wrong? Simple: my head hurts after reading it. This is because Salvatore constantly falls prey to the shortcoming of weaker authors: he tells rather than shows sentiment. Thus, we are always clonked over the head with 'The character felt xxxx'. This is poor writing, and lazy; far better to show how the characters act, and let the reader infer their feelings from their actions and gestures and expressions and speech. I don't remember Salvatore doing this in the series about Drizzt's early life, so I'm not sure what happened, but the writing here is just plain amateurish despite Salvatore's obvious command of vocabulary. If this were a book with less great adventure, I'd have put it down after ten pages. As it is, it's still worth reading for the richness of the characters and the parts that touch on life in the Underdark. Just wear a helmet.

Summary: Continue the adventures of the Greatest fantasy character.
Review: This is the next Drizzt series after "The Icewind Dale Trillogy". Here we follow Drizzt and his friends in battles against the Evil Spider Queen trying to kill drizzt for leaving his dark kin. It is in this series where Drizzt starts to question himself and wonder how he is going to carry on with his life if he continues to be a danger to his friends. These are four books you dont want to miss.
