About this ebook
The first epic fantasy adventure in a new trilogy from the New York Times–bestselling Legend of Drizzt series, based on Dungeons & Dragons!
In the aftermath of the War of the Silver Marches, Drizzt Do’Urden and his companions await their next battle . . .
The pall that had descended over the North is gone, and a new day has dawned on a victorious Mithral Hall. But no matter how bright things seem on the surface, Drizzt and his companions know that what lurks just under their feet remains steeped in evil and charged with unimaginable power.
The dark elves of Menzoberranzan, including the powerful Archmage Gromph, aren't done with Drizzt yet. And consumed by their own power struggles, feeling backed into a corner, the drow may just be desperate enough to call on demonic forces from the deepest reaches of the Abyss, and unleash a disaster even the Underdark could never have prepared for.
Archmage is the first book in the Homecoming trilogy and the thirty-first book in the Legend of Drizzt series.

This book, like many of its predecessors, was amazing. It focused on more characters than just the Companions of the Hall. It eluded to many exciting thing yet to come. I do wish Drizzt was in the book more, but the parts he was in were dramatic and amazing. The livelihood of the dwarves and the emotion behind their lives left a tear in my eye from the way they honor and care for one another. Seeing as this is the first book of a series I think it will be quite an epic tale!

WOW. Wow. For the first time, since I started the first book of The Legend of Drizzt series, I find myself unable to simply buy or check-out the next volume in the series. Whether it be this very real, and new cliffhanger, or the actual quality of the book, I do not know. But, at the moment, I view this volume as the best of the series, to date. I was originally skeptical of taking Drizzt back to his original companions reborn, vice allowing him to discover new allies and new challenges, but I have very much enjoyed the new wrinkles the Reborn Companions bring to the stories. Drizzt's black-and-white view of the world continues to swirl as Bruenor's quest for Gauntlgrym continues.

Bought this book the day it became available for preordering, and was extremely excited to read the sample and then the full book...at which point it says I do not have access to the full book and they expect me to pay for it again. 1 star until I receive what I paid for.

About the author
R.A. Salvatore was born in Massachusetts in 1959. He is the New York Times–bestselling author of more than forty novels, including the popular Forgotten Realms series, The Legend of Drizzt. His love affair with fantasy, and with literature in general, began during his sophomore year of college when he was given a copy of J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings as a Christmas gift. He promptly changed his major from computer science to journalism. He began writing seriously in 1982, penning the manuscript that would become Echoes of the Fourth Magic.
His first published novel was The Crystal Shard from TSR in 1988, and his novel The Silent Bladewon the Origins Award. He is still best known as the creator of dark elf Drizzt Do’Urden, one of fantasy’s most beloved characters.
