About this ebook
Drizzt and the Companions of the Hall join forces to rescue an old friend and battle drow intrigue in this new chapter in the New York Times–bestselling saga
The beloved Companions of the Hall have been restored, thanks to the workings of the goddess Mielikki. With his most faithful friends at his side once more, Drizzt Do'Urden returns to Gauntlgrym to rescue Thibbledorf Pwent, Bruenor’s loyal shield dwarf-turned-vampire.
But in order to return Pwent back to his mortal form, Drizzt and the Companions must first undertake a perilous journey through the Underdark—a journey made all the more dangerous by the political turmoil that has erupted among drow society. House Baenre, the most prestigious of the ruling drow houses, wants to increase its power over Menzoberranzan even further. While their leaders race to erect a sister city in Gauntlgrym, a Baenre noble seeks to tear down Drizzt Do'Urden once and for all.
Night of the Hunter is the first book in the Companions Codex and the twenty-eighth book in the Legend of Drizzt series.

I read all of the Drizzt books, and looked forward to this like anyone, but after I don't know how many pages of boring drivel about dark elf characters I have no interest in or attachment to and the author's excessive use of exclamation points I had to throw in the towel. I think he had a 7th grade kid write half of it. Sad.

I find myself liking the antagonist plot way more than the protagonist. The interplay of the drow houses is amazing. Drizzt and entreri plots are well done as well. Wulfgar, Regis, and catti brie are more of the same mediocrity. Brunoer brings moments of greatness. Please stop the second guessing cry baby stuff and the ultimate do good crap.

The book was fantastic and had a plot that sucked you in very quickly. It is a bit confusing if this is your first book with Drizzit Do'Urden, as all of the character names and weapon names and house names can become confusing. Once you sort through the characters the book was great and a very quick read. Also be warned this is not a literary classic but a story that reads like someone retelling their most recent D&D campaign.
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.
