About this listen

The Assassin: Surrounded by dark elves, Artemis Entreri tightens his grip on the streets of Calimport. While he urges caution, his black-skinned sponsor grows ever more ambitious. The assassin will soon find himself on a path his most hated enemy has walked before him - a path that leads to a place where someone like Entreri would never be welcome.

The Drow: Jarlaxle has ascended from dark Menzoberranzan with only evil intentions. The malevolent Crystal Shard’s influence on him intensifies until even the drow agents he brought with him grow fearful. When Bregan D’aerthe itself begins to turn on him, Jarlaxle will be forced to find a savior in the man he’s come to enslave.

Different Series

This series follows Jarlaxell and Enterie on their adventures separate from the main characters. The story was excellent and the character study of both characters was very interesting. This series is a nice break from the rest of the books because it explores in detail the other characters.

The Drizzt books are better

this book which centers around Artemas Entreri and Jarlaxle is good compared to other fantasy novels, but pales in Comparison to the Books centered around Drizzt Do'Urden and the champions of the Hall. If you prefer those incorruptible heroes then this book is not for you, as this book focuses more on the anti-heroes that do good out of selfish ambition rather than altruism

Follows Artemis and Jarlaxle

I was hesitant about this book initially since it follows Artemis and Jarlaxle only. However, it was a really good book and I enjoyed most of it.

I have read your books over the last 35 years.

I have loved them from the very first books in 1988. I listen to all of them again here finding ones I have missed over the years. The voices your reader emparts allows me to keep the characters as seperate entities. Allowing for the stories to flow within my mind. I thank you for the inner thoughts of Dritz. For they seem similar to mine over the years as I ponder my life. It is good to feel that my thoughts are not alien to others, even though the character is a fictionalized part of your inner thoughts

Much love for your writings my friend.

I like that Salvatore goes away from Drizzit and the companions. I will continue to listen.
