Summary: Oooooooh, this book is HOT!
Review: A turbo-charged action epic. A classic story of an honorable Dark Elf, shunned by society, forced to fight for pride and family. Armed with only a whirling scrimitar and a bad attitude, this skillfull little elf kicks some serious ass through this thrill ride adventure. If you've got a taste for violence, action and an exciting storyline, this book will whet your appetite and should be on every action fan's menu of literature

Summary: A great book for fans of this genre
Review: In this novel, Salvatore is at his finest. He uses his literary license to create an entire city full of corruption, deceit, and treachery. Enter our hero, Drizzt Do'Urden. He breaks the mold, lashing out against his family, his society, and the Spider Queen. A must read for all fans of The Icewind Dale Trilogy, AD&D players, and all fans of fantasy fiction

Summary: At last Drizzit's childhood!
Review: R.A. Salvatore does it again! I have read every one of Bob's books, and this one is really the best! Finally the background on Drizzit's life before he came to the surface. I recomend this book to any one, even those who usually don't like fantasy novels

Summary: The young dark elf Drizzt's odyssey of growing up; excellent
Review: Of all the authors out there, Bob Salvatore has really taken the fantasy world by a chokehold. In this chapter of Drizzt Do'Urden's life, the young dark elf realizes the problems of living in the Spider Queen's nest and having the heart of a valiant warrior. A cruel act of fate sends the excellent student from innocent child to broken man. He strikes out at a world that is cruel and unjust, only to learn that the world he wishes for will take a lot more searching to find. An excellent read.

Summary: R.A. Salvatore brings Drizzt to life again!
Review: If you enjoyed Drizzt from the Icewind Dale Trilogy, then one is a must have. The first book in the Dark Elf Trilogy explains the background of Drizzt Do'urden, how the dark became the person he is now! Drizzt not only battles the unseen in the underdark, but the inner battles caused by his own kin, and the drow way of life! A must read book for all fans of Drizzt Do'urden!

Summary: Homeland is the best book ever!!!!
Review: I usually don't like TSR books, but Homeland just blew me away. A society of *EVIL* 'Drow' elves live underground. One elf breaks the mold and fights for what he feels is right. Beautifully written with increadible fighting scenes. Intricate plot and so many twists and turns your head'll spin. Book #1 in a 9 book series, it actually was the fourth book written (Crystal Shard was first, from the Icewind Trilogy) but it is MUCH better if you read the Dark Elf Trilogy then Icewind Trilogy and then the following 3 books. #9th book leaves so much unanswered and I don't know if he's going to continue. Does anyone know?

Summary: A Good Surprise
Review: This is the first book I've read that's written by R.A. Salvatore and also the first I've read in the Forgotten Realms and to tell the truth I wasn't expecting much. I don't usually read books in big series like Forgotten Realms, and the only reason I read it was because my friend said it was better than the book I was reading at the time and I was eager to prove him wrong. I was however, surprised by how much I enjoyed the book, except for the beggining, which I found slow moving and boring. R.A. Salvatore's portrayal of the dark elf soceity was vivid and cruelly real. The whole soceity seems planned out and carfully thought about. The writing of the book is pretty good, but not great, but that's not stopping me from reading the other two books in the dark elf trilogy as soon as I can get my hands on them.
