  <description><![CDATA[Think of it as an opportunity to give all those tattered old  paperbacks away to younger adventurers. Just as Wizards of the Coast did with the Icewind Dale and Dark Elf trilogy hardbacks, this 1,000-plus page collector's edition pulls together some of Drizzt Do'Urden's best stories--<em>Legacy</em>, <em>Starless Night</em>, <em>Siege of Darkness</em>, and <em>Passage to Dawn</em>--into one whopping volume.<p> Starting way back with 1988's <em>Crystal Shard</em>, the Icewind Dale books kicked off the celebrated Drizzt saga, while the Dark Elf prequel trio that followed detailed the scimitar swinger's shadowy beginnings in the drow city of Menzoberranzan. This third series essentially rolls up a bunch of random encounters from both worlds--all of Drizzt's cherished friends and newfound foes on the surface world, along with his old adversaries from the Underdark--throwing them into combat after combat to see who shakes out.<p> <em>Legacy</em> begins amicably enough, with Bruenor back on the throne and Cattie-brie and Wulfgar getting ready to tie the knot. But along comes a spider (the demon queen Lloth, in this case), and pretty soon the tunnels below Mithril Hall become a bloodbath. <em>Starless Night</em> takes Drizzt deeper into the Underdark in search of his lost friends, to Blingdenstone and on towards Menzoberranzan. Then <em>Siege of Darkness</em> nearly closes the series with its giant drow-dwarf battle finale, but the sea-faring followup adventure <em>Passage to Dawn</em> reveals  the fate of one of Drizzt's fallen comrades, held in the Abyss by the demon Errtu. <em>--Paul Hughes</em> </p></p>]]></description>

    <body><![CDATA[A respectable piece of fantasy, Salvatore's Drizzt novels are fun if not particularly challenging. Characters have distinct personalities and sometimes defy expectations, though this is more common later in the series. Highlights are battle sequences and, for me at least, the 'D&amp;D campaign' feeling.<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/79531772">more...</a>]]></body>

This third series essentially rolls up a bunch of random encounters from both worlds--all of Drizzt's cherished friends and newfound foes on the surface world, along with his old adversaries from the Underdark--throwing them into combat after combat to see who shakes out.<p> <em>Legacy</em> begins amicably enough, with Bruenor back on the throne and Cattie-brie and Wulfgar getting ready to tie the knot. But along comes a spider (the demon queen Lloth, in this case), and pretty soon the tunnels below Mithril Hall become a bloodbath. <em>Starless Night</em> takes Drizzt deeper into the Underdark in search of his lost friends, to Blingdenstone and on towards Menzoberranzan. Then <em>Siege of Darkness</em> nearly closes the series with its giant drow-dwarf battle finale, but the sea-faring followup adventure <em>Passage to Dawn</em> reveals  the fate of one of Drizzt's fallen comrades, held in the Abyss by the demon Errtu. <em>--Paul Hughes</em> </p></p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[ The best book series I have ever read.<br/>Not only is the writing style completely amazing--because of the beautiful use of short-clip-sentences and vocabulary--but the plotlines of these books are geniously written.

    <![CDATA[Think of it as an opportunity to give all those tattered old  paperbacks away to younger adventurers. Just as Wizards of the Coast did with the Icewind Dale and Dark Elf trilogy hardbacks, this 1,000-plus page collector's edition pulls together some of Drizzt Do'Urden's best stories--<em>Legacy</em>, <em>Starless Night</em>, <em>Siege of Darkness</em>, and <em>Passage to Dawn</em>--into one whopping volume.<p> Starting way back with 1988's <em>Crystal Shard</em>, the Icewind Dale books kicked off the celebrated Drizzt saga, while the Dark Elf prequel trio that followed detailed the scimitar swinger's shadowy beginnings in the drow city of Menzoberranzan. This third series essentially rolls up a bunch of random encounters from both worlds--all of Drizzt's cherished friends and newfound foes on the surface world, along with his old adversaries from the Underdark--throwing them into combat after combat to see who shakes out.<p> <em>Legacy</em> begins amicably enough, with Bruenor back on the throne and Cattie-brie and Wulfgar getting ready to tie the knot. But along comes a spider (the demon queen Lloth, in this case), and pretty soon the tunnels below Mithril Hall become a bloodbath. <em>Starless Night</em> takes Drizzt deeper into the Underdark in search of his lost friends, to Blingdenstone and on towards Menzoberranzan. Then <em>Siege of Darkness</em> nearly closes the series with its giant drow-dwarf battle finale, but the sea-faring followup adventure <em>Passage to Dawn</em> reveals  the fate of one of Drizzt's fallen comrades, held in the Abyss by the demon Errtu. <em>--Paul Hughes</em> </p></p>]]>

    <body><![CDATA[Drizz't is the fantasy equivalent of Steven Seagal. Emminently skilled in a fight, exciting, even, but with the emotional range of a porcupine in a valium coma. The characters aer cliched, and the plots are stereotypical D&amp;D drivel. Nothing new or interesting here, just melodramatic fantasy fare. ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Yep, R.A. Salvatore is the one author i would drive to get his autograph. Excellent writing style and his stories flow well without any gaps or holes. And there are no words to do justice to the characters and how they evolve through each book. In my mind, the best author for this genre!]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[Typical fantasy dreck.  Some decent points, (it's a compilation of 4 books making up 1 storyline, some of the books are better than others).    No need to read unless you're a fan of Drizzt Do'Urden.   Was useful light plane/commute reading.   ]]></body>
