Summary: The Best Book Ever Written
Review: a friend lent this book to me, and i've been avidly following drizzt do'urden's escapades and adventures for the past two weeks. the story is so finely detailed, so exactly described that you can see in in your mind as clearly as though you were watching it unfold before you. the story is amazing: inspiring and thought-provoking...my outlook on the world will never be the same after reading this! i recommend this book to everyone, and can't wait to start on the Icewind Dale trilogy!

Summary: R.A. Salvatore is the greatest writer alive!
Review: Ok, to start off, I own every forgotten realms novel by salvatore, and I have to say that he is one of the greatest writers alive. He is even a match for the God of fantasy, J.R.R. Tolkien. I always look forward to reading Salvatore's new books. Anyways, The Dark Elf Trilogy was one of the best trilogies he has written. there was an immense amount of suspense, mixed in with adventure, and the struggles of Life. I found the Books VERY inspiring. I suggest that if you haven't read all of his books, you need to.

Summary: A mystical world brought to arms reach of reality
Review: Don't stop at the trilogy!!! Salvatore his added six books since! I have been a solid follower of Drizzt through the Icewind Dale trilogy, the Dark Elf trilogy, The Legacy, Starless Night, Siege of Darkness, Passage to Dawn, and the current book I have been reading The Silent Blade. Even after I complete this book which I am half way through and can not comment on for fear of ruining the previous books for those of you who need to catch up. After the completion of this book there is The Spine of the World due out in September 1999 in hard cover. Why should you spend your time reading these books? There are so many hidden moral lessons in life amongst the pages. In the meantime you are drawn into a world that brings the illumination of battle and fantasy hurling towards the reader in a never ending story filled with intrigue and action like no other book I have ever read. I was out of the circuit for a while until a friend I recommended the trilogy to informed me of the release of The Silent Blade. Without hesitation I ran to the store and have been unable to put the book down. Beware!!! Once you begin with Homeland and move on to the Icewind Dale trilogy, before you even know what happended you'll be reading the Legacy and wonder where you were able to make all that time.

Summary: The weakest of the trilogy
Review: Well, I enjoyed the fast paced action of the first two books and the wonderful, dark world of "the Underdark" and Menzobarrenzen. Unfortunately, I do not think Salvatore did as good a job with the surface world. It seemed that Drizz't is now such a fantastic warrior that none of his opponents in the story caused him to break much of a sweat, as opposed to Zaknefein in "Exile" and "Homeland". On the plus side, I think the blind ranger Mooshie was a terrific character and I enjoyed Drizz't's trial and error method of learning about the surface world. Again, basically straightforward stuff, fast paced, without a lot of surprises.

Summary: Fantastic- Best book I ever read!
Review: This book has a fulfilling storyline including vivid discriptions of the world surrounding Drizzt Do'Urden. Mr. Salvatore has a way to make fanasy writing more than just a read: he makes it an experience. He places you in the mindset of Drizzt. You feel as if you are the one behind those whirling scimitars, the one who is tring to ovecome the boundries of hate forged by your evil kin. This was an excellent book, a read I would suggest to all.

Summary: The best books I have ever read!
Review: This book is wonderful! He describes things with such detail that it seems like a movie in your mind. You don't feel like you are reading a story, it seems like you are seeing the story unfold before you. The story is deep and intelligent, but easy to understand. The characters are amazingly well designed. I love these books and recommend them to everyone! My compliments to the author.

Summary: Beyond awesome!
Review: The Dark Elf Trilogy appeals, not only as pure literary excellence but also as fundamental reading enjoyment!! As novelists, we can only pray to deliver the ideal and essential reverence that R.A. Salvatore has delivered with this trilogy!

Summary: Greatest character, greatest author, what can I say?
Review: This book is perfect for all those people who have read of Drizzt's great and heroic deeds in 'The Icewind Dale Trilogy' and in all his other books. It gives lots of descriptions, emotions, ect. that make this book perhaps the greatest achievment of R.A. Salavatore. You'll read about Drizzt's malicious race and his gruesome training(Homeland), his exile into the underdark for sacrilege(Exile), and his journey for a new home on the surface. You'll never stop thinking "what will happen next?" with this great book.

Summary: SALVATORE IS THE MAN AND DRIZZT IS THE DROW
Review: Salvatore is quickly becoming one of my all time favorite authors. He brilliantly describes the Underdark, especially the city of the drow Menzoberranzan and created a fine character in Drizzt. Throughout the novel, we see how Drizzt retains his beliefs and principles, fighting the ones he doesn't want to become. His search for a home is empowered with his search for himself. A good read. Kudos to Salvatore.
