Title: Gauntlgrym
Author: R. A. Salvatore
Pages: 345
Genre: Fantasy
Series: Legend of Drizzt, Book 23
Synopsis: Drizzt joins Bruenor on his quest for the fabled dwarven kingdom of Gauntlgrym: ruins said to be rich with ancient treasure and arcane lore. But before they even get close, another drow and dwarf pair stumbles across it first: Jarlaxle and Athrogate.
In their search for treasure and magic, Jarlaxle and Athrogate inadvertently set into motion a catastrophe that could spell disaster for the unsuspecting people of the city of Neverwinter—a catastrophe big enough to lure even the mercenary Jarlaxle into risking his own coin and skin to stop it. Unfortunately, the more they uncover about the secret of Gauntlgrym, the more it looks like they can’t stop it on their own. They’ll need help, and from the last people they ever thought to fight alongside again: Drizzt and Bruenor.
Review: This series is very good. I've enjoyed it up until now. I think I waited too long to continue the series. I read book 22 in 2010. It took a while to get the next few books and then, by the time I had them, I had other books I wanted to read. Now, I've just lost interest in Drizzt Do'Urden and his adventures. I've forgotten too much of the back story and just found myself not all that interested.
I've taken the remaining three books from this series off my TBR and I won't be trying to get the rest. For me, it's just time to part ways with the brave and exciting drow named Drizzt. He sure was fun while it lasted though.
Rating: 6.5 / 10
