I'm glad I'm not a dark elf. :)Is there any race on earth that resemble dark elf? I wonder...I'm hooked on dark elves.
Since I loved the original Drizzt books so much, I have been wanting to read more about the Drow for quite a while. I've had this series on my radar for a few years, but finally got my hands on a copy of the first volume. I was not disappointed! The book had lots of fast paced action, half-hearted friendships and alliances, betrayals, runaways and secrets, and uprisings. The first of the War of the Spider Queen books, this installment is most likely a lot of denouement but boy, it's interesting
The first book of a great series full of fun to read D&D action wheels within wheels intrigue, and likeablely confident, respectably competent, frighteningly ambitious, detestably evil, tragically flawed Dark Elven anti-heros. Possibly the best look at how the Drow work and work together that has been published. The second half of this series (yes the entire second half as I recall it) contains the best high level D&D spell dual I've ever read. I mainly chose to write this review now
As I have previously stated, but worth mentioning again, this is what I define as "cereal fantasy" - mass-produced sugary fantasy, fortified with essential elements and heavily processed within a comprehensive, predefined rule set. Don't get me wrong, I love cereal just as much as when I was a kid. On occasion, I love to indulge my sweet tooth by returing to these wonderfully detailed, shared universes such as Dragonlance and Forgotten Realms. The only thing about eating saccharine cereal as an
This book has been long suggested to me. I put it off because I was sick of all the FR Drow tales. But this one is a little bit different. Their entire world is shaken and though there are no real heroes there are people who care about their homeland. I can't wait to read the next book.
The interesting aspect of having a series written by multiple writers is that you are introduced to their writing in a sly way. I have not read much fantasy outside of J.R.R.Tolkien and R.A. Salvatore. I could see myself reading another book by Richard Lee Byers.The drow live in the underdark, are dark elves and worship Lolth (the Spider Queen). They are driven by a nasty matriarchy that exhalts secret killings and status advancement. Families make up the hierarchy of Menzobarranzan (their city)
