One dark elf. Two enchanted blades. One unknown enemy. And a horde of invaders.

When a blood-thirsty banc of orcs, led by an as-yet-unseen enemy, comes rampaging out of the Spine of the World, it lays waste to everything in its path. Dark elf ranger Drizzt Do'Urden and his most trusted friends find themselves in the path of destruction. As blades slash and feet trample, even the heroes may not survive a desperate stand.

Writing this right after hearing Bevine’s voice for Dagnabbit.

Aw man, I think you should listen to these books because they are amazing and exciting, but I’m so sorry to say that Victor Bevine struggles to give the character’s any depth beyond the words Salvatore wrote for them. His voice is melodic, deep and pleasant, but his acting of the characters is robotic and monotonous. His voicing of the characters is the same whether they are furiously fighting orcs or justtalking calmly, and it sucks me out of the moment! I have to actively re-inflect the words he says, in my head, in an attempt to add the appropriate drama.

I had these thoughts while listening to this series entirely so far, but would have never written a review... but I just heard the voice Bevibe chose to play Dagnabbit.... and I almost cried and had to write this. Dagnabbit is a badass general dwarf, smart, cunning, capable.... he’s not only a dwarf. But one of the best... and Victor Bevine chose to give this legend of a dwarf a soft and nasal voice, no voice suited to play any dwarf, but one better suited for a halfling. Terrible. Really good books though. I recommend spending your credit on them, all of that aside. P.s. that’s a generous 3 stars for Bevine despite what I just said in my disappointment because I just love these books

Great story, occasional volume issues

As others have noted , the story line is , again, fantastic.
I like the reader, but was annoyed at the sound of this production that had me turn the volume up and down a lot.
Having listened to the very first Drizzt books only , it took me a while to understand who was who among the many characters, but now I'm looking forward to the next 2 books in this series.

Bevine brings Salvatore to life

mr bevine and salvatore 2 great talents 1 magical listen to be sure my only problem is now i cant hear Salvatore read by anyone else

Great imagery

I always enjoy his books and how he uses great detail to portray characters and battles I always feel like I can see a mental movie while going through these books I now love.

back to the story

It's great they finally gotten back to the story of drizzt. the stories that they have been in the last few books should have been a separate series. but now they are back on track and this book was great cant wait to read the next.

One Of The Best Of The Series

I was really worried he was not going to be narrating this one due to the last book in sell sword series. was so happy to hear his voice. also this book was fantastic...

Essential D&D setting and inspiration.

Hard to hear other narrators in Drizzt audiobooks. Victor sets a high bar.
