Return of the Drow4
This book is a collection of the four books that make up the Legacy of Drow set.
Following on from his previous books, RA Salvatore focuses on the character of Drizzt Do'Urden as he attempts to build a new life away from his shadowy past.
Believing himself to be safe beyond the reach of the Drow and their vengeful Goddess Lloth he allows himself to relax with his friends in the city of the Dwarves.
But all is not as it seems and wheels are being set in motion that start a series of events destined to shake the entire world.

Anyone who has enjoyed the Dark Elf trilogy by Mr Salvatore will undoubtedly enjoy this set, though to new-comers to the series it may appear confusing as you really need the background to appreciate the twists and turns.

Excellent - Drizzt never disappoints5
Possibly the most enjoyable books I've ever read. Absolutley wonderful, set in a world of purest fantasy, yet detailed enough to be believable.

OK, so Catti-Brie gets on my nerves, archetypal heroine -stunningly beautiful and loved by all men who look at her, yet with a wild spirit, etc etc yawn.

Nonetheless, can't rate these books highly enough. It takes a long time after to shake Drizzt from your everyday thoughts, so easily does his world pull you in.

Great, though not as fresh.4
I really liked the Dark Elf and Icewind Dale books, and these ones are a good continuation of a fantastic collection. I did find it annoying that some of the names and words had been changed (or maybe I'm off my head,) but then again, in the First set, Drizzt comes from the Underworld, and in the Second, the Underdark, so this isn't such a big thing.
Priceless bits in here, what with unorthodox wizardry and pessimistic pirates-turned-crewmates.

To conclude, if you liked the first lot, there's no reason you won't like this. What other people say about there being "no more to write about these characters" is not true, yet, and the NEXT set of books concentrates on the baddies, anyway.
