Review of the audiobook narrated by Victor Bevine.

Between 10 and 20 years ago, back when I only read a handful of books each year, I read through most of this series (up to book 17 of The Legend of Drizzt). With my recent re-introduction to reading thanks to audiobooks I've had the opportunity...

Sojourn
AuthorR.A. Salvatore
ISBN1560760478
Drizzt the Dark Elf comes to the surface world and tries to find his place in there. Nobody wants a dark elf living among people (wood elves, dwarves, etc.) due to firm belief dark elves are up to no good. There, I just gave you away the plot of the whole book, all 300 pages of it. Does it sound boring? If it does...

Exile
AuthorR.A. Salvatore
ISBN0786939834
A buddy read with Kristen, Gavin, and Kaora.

This book picks up right where the first one ended. For this reason I cannot give any big details about plot as they will spoil the ending of the first book. Sufficient to say Drizzt is still alive which is not a big surprise as this is the second book of...
Dangerous Games
AuthorClayton Emery
ISBN0786905247
So,
This book was just as bad as the first one....but perhaps this one had a little bit of the history I was looking for in the first book, but didn't find...however disapointing..

Sunbright now lives in the flying city with fat wizard and Polaris. He has set his mind on reclaiming his chick's...
Pool of Radiance
AuthorJames M. Ward
ISBN0880387351
Stellar writing or crafty plotting? Not particularly. But, this was my post-Tolkien teenage fantasy gateway drug that paved the way for the discovery of Brooks/Salvatore/Eddings/Feist/Rawn/Martin/Abercrombie/Rothfuss/Sanderson/Weis and Hickman/et al, and for that reason alone, it's a...

Twilight Falling
AuthorPaul S. Kemp
ISBN0786929987
3.0/5

If you think this is a 5 star book, you've been reading the wrong fantasy books -- perhaps the wrong books in general.

Spoiler: Set your standards higher, please.

I understand rating books is subjective. With each book one finishes a person can't help but compare it to...
