Product Description
“Finding someone to finish a series after five novels from five different authors is no easy task. He’s got to be willing to find all the open roads the others have left for him. He’s got to do his homework, and quickly. And given the quality of his predecessors’ work, he’s got to be good . . . Enter Paul Kemp. Whew! Writers like this don’t come along every day.”
–R.A. Salvatore
The New York Times best-selling author of The Two Swords
THE SPIDER QUEEN LIVES AGAIN
But something is different, something her priestesses can hear in the winds, feel in their spirits, and for a select few see with their own eyes. The Demonweb Pits, removed from the Abyss to take its place among the lower planes, is more dangerous, more horrifying than anyone has ever imagined. Teeming with feral spiders bent on ripping each other to pieces– killing, eating, and killing again–the blasted landscape of Lolth’s personal hell is still forming.
Quenthel Baenre, with the tattered remnants of her expedition continuing to plot against her, crosses that spider-infested killing ground in hopes of answering the call of her reborn goddess. If she can make it to Lolth’s side, can she even imagine what plans the Queen of the Demonweb Pits has had for her all along?
The final novel in an epic six-part series from the fertile imaginations of R.A. Salvatore, and a select group of the newest, most exciting authors in the genre. Join them as they bring an end to a devastating war, and give birth to the greatest horror the Realms has ever known.
Danifae Yauntyrr, former battle-captive of House Melarn, has come too far to stop now. She has regained her freedom after years of servitude, but has yet to exact her revenge. Though she has gained much, grown in both power and ambition, and enjoys the protection of the powerful draegloth Jeggred Baenre, Danifae still needs to kill Halisstra Melarn. But how can she when she’s followed Quenthel and Pharaun into the heart of Lolth’s reformed domain, a hellish world of demonic spiders bent on eating each other, and anything else stupid enough to get in their way–including the chosen vessel of Lolth herself.
While Danifae wonders how she’ll ever take vengeance on a woman she left behind on the surface of Faerûn, the very target of her burning hatred is close on her heals. Halisstra has come to the Demonweb Pits with a very different agenda. In her hands she holds the fabled Crescent Blade, a sword she believes will grant her the power to kill Lolth herself–but only if they find her before she fully completes her own mysterious

So so,
By Jerry "a sci-fi/fantasy lover" (Macon, GA USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Resurrection: War of the Spider Queen Book VI (Mass Market Paperback)
Overall, not the best book of the series, but I do love the way the writer writes. Been following him for years and though it's not great, it still isn't a poor work and any fan of his will enjoy it.**A book I would also recommend is The Unsuspecting Mage by Brian S. Pratt. This, the first installment of The Morcyth Saga is a great beginning for a new author. Battles, magic, gods, secret passages and intrigue, all the elements of a classic epic fantasy! Any fantasy reader will enjoy it.

Letdown,
By Jay Robson (Alberta, Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Resurrection: War of the Spider Queen, Book VI (Hardcover)
I was hoping that this book would bring a new path to the drow society or a slight divergence but it had such a weak conclusion. I found that the side plot was more entertaining. This series should have been called War of the Drow Mages. I would have been happier.

All's well that ends okay....,
By Derek J. January - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Resurrection: War of the Spider Queen, Book VI (Hardcover)
Well, I must say I did enjoy this series of books, but the way the whole thing ended was a bit disappointing. It seemed to offer more questions than it acutally answered. I was mad that my favorite character had to die and was even madder than another character died in a way in which he should not have been killed. He was meant to die a "different" way. There were a few storylines for earlier books in the series that never got resolved. I look forward to the possibility of this story continuing in another saga, but we'll have to wait and see I guess. All in all, I found the ending to a great saga to be a little thin...

All Good Things Must Come to a BAD ENDING,
By B. Roque - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Resurrection: War of the Spider Queen, Book VI (Hardcover)
I purchased all the hard covers for this book from Dissolution to Resurrection. The first five books were excellent. The final book is a complete disappointment. You have this plot from the first book to the last that Lolth was supposed to change into something fantastic that will change the Forgotten Realms for ever. Nothing special happened to Lolth. She changed her address and appearance, that is it. Plus there were characters that did not deserve to die and their deaths were very simple.

Disapointed,
By Jeffrey Bunting "Jeff" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Resurrection: War of the Spider Queen, Book VI (Hardcover)
Okay first off I was very disapointed in what was a great fantasy series by various authors. I didn't care for Halistra who started out to be really cool became almost totally benign and simply uncomprehensive. I also didn't like the authors contradictions to what everyone knows about the drow.For example all drow can levitate (it's a natural ability of the drow) yet you have Kemp saying that it's hard for the drow to levitate. I don't honestly think that Kemp really did his research into the drow society. Honestly I felt the ending was one of the most pointless and meeningless endings ever made. Infact the vast majority of the characters acted totally out of character. For example, where's Phaurons witt? He isn't supposed to merely look away. He had drive and charisma and yet Kemp mistakenly believing that just because Phauron is a male that he will act like a slave? I also remember that Quenthel and Phauron aren't really supposed to get along but boy does that change. Also how is it that Halistra starts doubting herself with no apparent reason. Maybe someone else should have wrote this series I guess. |
