Product Description

From Amazon.com

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--Legacy, Starless Night, Siege of Darkness, and Passage to Dawn--into one whopping volume.

Starting way back with 1988's Crystal Shard, 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.

Legacy 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. Starless Night takes Drizzt deeper into the Underdark in search of his lost friends, to Blingdenstone and on towards Menzoberranzan. Then Siege of Darkness nearly closes the series with its giant drow-dwarf battle finale, but the sea-faring followup adventure Passage to Dawn reveals the fate of one of Drizzt's fallen comrades, held in the Abyss by the demon Errtu. --Paul Hughes --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Product Description

A collection of four New York Times bestselling novels by R. A. Salvatore.

The Legacy of the Drow Collector's Edition brings together four bestselling novels: The Legacy, Starless Night, Siege of Darkness, and Passage to Dawn. The adventure begins in seeming serenity as we find Drizzt Do'Urden enjoying a rare state of peace. But he did not arrive at this station without leaving powerful enemies in his wake. Lolth, the dreaded Spider Queen deity of the evil Dark Elves, counts herself among these enemies and has vowed to end the drow's idyllic days. Thus begins a severe and lasting chain of events that make these collected Forgotten Realms novels unforgettable reads.

5.0 out of 5 stars Salvatore's gem..., April 24 2008

By	JD (B.C. CDN) - See all my reviews

I have read most of Salvatore's books and I have to say that I have enjoyed this series the most. Legacy of the Drow - C.E. contains The Legacy, Starless Night, Siege of Darkness, and Passage to Dawn. This edition is a cohesive collection and can stand on it's own. I believe this series to be the diamond in the rough for Salvatore. I'm glad to have read it...Can't wait to continue with the Paths of Darkness C.E.

I would still recommend The Legend of Drizzt C.E. (Homeland, Exile, and Sojourn.) as a starting point and a great read. Also The Icewind Dale C.E. (Crystal Shard, Streams of Silver, and The Halfling's Gem) is also recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars The legacy of the drow, Jul 13 2004

By	Phill (us) - See all my reviews

This was the best series of books describing the adventures of Drizzt and his companions. There is great description, inovation and action in each of the four books in the series. My favourite book was the siege of darkness, the characters are all superb, the draven battles with the drows are great, and Jarlaxe uses his ussual guile to come out on top.

3.0 out of 5 stars Plenty of adventure - very little else, Jul 12 2004

By	Alex Frantz (San Leandro, ca USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Legacy of the Drow: Collector's Edition (Hardcover)

This is a collection of previously published adventures of Drizzt Do' Urden assembled into a single volume. Urden is probably Salvatore's most popular character. A 'Dark Elf', born and raised in an underground city dedicated to the worship of an evil spider queen, Urden has rejected the ways of his people to become a sort of knight errant, usually seen in company with human and other friends he has gathered in his journeys.

As shown by other reviews here, some readers really go for this style of fantasy, but I was largely unimpressed. My main problem was that with the elaborately balanced cast of characters - Elf, Dwarf, Barbarian, Thief, Cleric, Assassin, Priestess, and various magical weapons and items - it often felt more like an RPG scenario than a novel. That was especially true in the first book; the sequels were better but still not terrific.

The characters and dialogue are thin. The surprises are few, the prose not particularly striking, character development entirely unknown, battles innumerable. In general, the book seemed aimed at the teen market that is the heart of the RPG industry.

The first three volumes of the tetralogy tell the story of an attack from Menzabarranzan, Drizzt Do' Urden's place of origin, against the dwarves of Mithril Hall. The final volume is a bit tacked on, not really the same story as the earlier books, although it it further adventures of the same characters.

Any of these four novels can be read as a stand-alone, although they do contain numerous spoilers for prior Urden novels. The 2nd through 4th also contain spoilers for the earlier novels in this set.

After reading the Dark Elf trilogy, this book provides further stories of what happens to Drizzt. The epic story is in-depth so I would not read through it fast. Read more
