With his last friend dead, Drizzt is alone for the first time in nearly a hundred years. Torn between his grief over the loss and an unprecedented sense of freedom, Drizzt finds himself vulnerable to his dynamic new companion, Dahlia, the only other member of their fellowship who survived the flood at Mount Hotenow.

But interacting with Dahlia brings many challenges. As the two companions seek revenge against the one responsible for the destruction of Neverwinter, Drizzt finds himself on the wrong side of the law in his attempt to protect those he considers wronged.

With new enemies all around him and old ones gaining powerful allies, Drizzt and Dahlia soon find themselves forced to fight - something the dark elf has perhaps begun to enjoy a bit too much...

The second book of R.A. Salvatore's new epic trilogy, which reveals the secrets of the highly anticipated DUNGEONS & DRAGONS game. Welcome to the legend of NEVERWINTER.
