This was in actuality author R.A. Salvatore's first book he wrote, and when compared to books one, two, and three of the series, you can tell. The story didn't seem to have the natural flow that the others did. The different situations that the characters found themselves in always were tense and full of drama (also plenty of humor) but seemed to be choppy, truncated, and seemed to be resolved nice and quickly. Drizzt too snuffers from his newness. This character may be more...aloof and maybe more "loose" with his personal ethics than what the Drizzt character is in the first three titles of the Legend of Drizzt series.
Drizzt, and his bestie cat Guenhwyvar, seem to able to survive and thrive even with many of the surface races downright hostile to them.
He has met new friends that are pretty great: Regis & Wulfgar, Bruenor & Catti-brie are back and as fun as ever. The reader discovers early on that the enemy is not a who (it is but it isn't) but a what. And boy does that what wreak havoc... There are wizards, and giants, there are demons and trolls and more Orcs than you can shake a stick at. All ready and willing to get after the Ten-Towns of the humans and raze it to the ground so they, more accurately the wizard Akar Kessell can then take over. We've even been introduced to a future enemy!
While Salvatore struggled a bit with the truncating of the story lines, that doesn't mean that this lacked in drama. How can they get out of these sticky situations? Who is going to step up next and be the hero...or the villain. How will this resolve itself, can some of these characters do these things that is needed, will they even do anything?! Read book four of the "Legend of Drizzt: the Crystal Shard" and find out for yourself!… (mer)
