Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Pretty Good
Review: The beginning is what I would call slow. Some of the characters are alone and depressed. HOWEVER. The ending is terrific. Lots and Lots of surprises. That is one of the things I love about Salvatore is he surprises me a lot. Especially when it comes to characters doing something you least expect them to do.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: could have been better
Review: this book could have been much better than it was. I dont think their was enough action and battles in this book this book mostly focused around catti-bre and not too much drizzt but it was a pretty good book but its not as good as most of salvatores books.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: It was excellent!
Review: This book, like all other of Salvatore's Forgotten Realms books, was quite wonderful

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: The return to the Underdark
Review: This is book 2 in the series "The Legacy of the Drow". This book takes off right after the first book, "The Legacy". Here we follow Drizzt into the Underdark once again to find and eliminate the threat of the evil Drow that have waged war agains he and his dear friends, and taken the life of one. If you have read the book "Exile" (book 2 of The Dark Elf Trillogy) and enjoyed it, you will like this book. Most of the book we are in the Underdark with Drizzt and his female friend Cattie-Brea. The ending of this book is not only a major turning point in the series, but will leave you smiling, and shocked. This is yet another great book in the wonderful Drizzt Saga.

Summary: middle of trilogy
Review: This is the 2nd book of the Legacy of Drow trilogy but the eighth book in the series. As with any trilogy the middle book is always the slowest but still an excellent book.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good, but there are better Salvatore's
Review: Unfortuately, this book didn't enthrall me the way Homeland and Exile did. There are several wonderful moments -- Drizzt's character is interesting as ever, and the confrontation between Matron Baenre and K'yorl Odran is masterfully handled. Unfortunately, Drizzt's escape stretched my suspension of disbelief a little too much -- I almost felt like I was reading a Jackie Chan movie. The plot was good, but not as masterful as in some of Salvatore's other efforts.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Drizzt's looks
Review: Well,it seems to me that everyone has a comment or 2 about how drizzt's facial appearance looks. I guess it did shock me at first because the first book with Drizzt I read was 'The crystal shard' and he did seem young,did he not? Anyway,then when I went to the store to buy The dark Elf trilogy,I was shocked! He looked (no offense or anything) horribly degraded and old,but you get used to his looks after.Maybe salvatore should have picked a different artist... That's all I have to say. Bye

Hmm...I wonder what ever happened to Dinin.......

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: What can I say........
Review: What can I say....? Ever since I picked up the first dark elf book I have'nt been able to go a day with out reading at least a chapter from one of the books. Whenever I sit down to read I find that I'm there beside Drizzt and the 'gang' sharing in their excitment and adventures. This book is just as good as the rest and evrybody regardless of how old they are should have this book. If their is one gripe I have it the cover illustrations, they are terrible. Drizzt looks too old to weild a zimmer frame never mind twin scitmars. I await the day they are re-printed with different covers.......but hey, this is just my opinion.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: worst of the drizzt books but still good
Review: What is good about Salvatore will always be good about Salvatore: the battle scenes. The character of Drizzt had always been an extra bonus, but in this book he acts out of character. First he is incredibly stupid to go to Menzoberranzan in that situation; why? To protect Catt-brie? Catti-brie doesn't need protection! That was exactly the way Wulfgar treated her in the preceding book and I didn't see Catti-brie bailing Wulfgar's sorry ass out! I didn't see her getting all mad at Drizzt. No, Drizzt went back because he was getting like Entreri, just looking around for someone who thought they could beat him. He lost, just like Entreri. I laughed so hard when Entreri and Catt-brie bailed Drizzt out. And then when Drizzt thinks about stabbing Entreri in the back? Shouldn't it be the other way around? Entreri lives to win battles, and he's lost. Drizzt lives to love, loses a loved one, condescends against another and loses a battle in the process (to Entreri I might add). I must admit that IF you are going to be a killer, and both Drizzt and Entreri are, then it's better to do it Entreri's way, without emotional misgivings. Because all of Drizzt's passion just causes him to act like a fool. If Drizzt was really a good guy, he wouldn't kill at all. He kills to protect his friends, his friends don't need it, so quit already! Killing is WRONG. How can Drizzt say that he is good and Entreri is evil when they both kill? Who is Drizzt to judge the difference between a person and a monster?
