Oh my gosh this book drove me insane in such a good way. To be honest I did find it a little bit slow at times, but the comparisons between Entreri and Drizzt throughout the book kept me hooked. Especially when I reached around the 70% mark I couldn't put the book down.

This definitely was an improvement over the first book in the Trilogy. Especially the last part felt like a really high stakes epic DnD style dungeon crawl and was overall highly enjoyable.
Getting there though was not always great. There were some where cringey scenes especially one involving a prostitute in a tavern. And also a bunch of stuff felt pretty repetitive. Like "we've done this before lets move on".
I did like that we got Catti-Brie more involved in the story as it really needed more presence of female characters and the same goes for an actual threatening villian which we also got with Artemis Entreri.
Still not the most original story but certainly fun.

Loving Drizzt and his adventures, can't wait to start on the next. This was just plain fun to lose yourself in.

Nostalgia is a necessary thing, I believe, and a way for all of us to find peace in that which we have accomplished, or even failed to accomplish. At the same time, if nostalgia precipitates actions to return to that fabled, rosy-painted time, particularly in one who believes his life to be a failure, then it is an empty thing, doomed to produce nothing but frustration and an even greater sense of failure.
Me ha costado arrancar con el libro, porque es como que cada vez aparecían y/o pasaban más cosas ajenas a los protagonistas, pero cuando ya todo ha empezado a ir sobre la marcha ha sido algo que no he podido soltar en HORAS. El ritmo ha sido diferente al primero pero Dios que divertido, que bien ha estado la escena del final, Drizzt por favor llámame. ENTRERI ERES MI NUEVA RATA.
