First off, I have to say this book was far from what I expected, I never imagined it could be so AWESOME! I never would have believed a combination of my two favorite forms of literature (comics and fantasy novels) could become something even better.

The book mainly starts out as an introduction to the realm of the Drow, and their way of life. They are a murderous people who care nothing for the lives of their brethren and simply live to seek higher status.

Then we meet Drizzt, the oddity of his race...raised to be a member of House Do'urden he is taught swordsmanship for several years by the legendary Zaknafein. In these moments we learn that Drizzt is considered "weak" by his people as he is not willing to kill a Drow.

Zaknafein hopes to one day take advantage of this and save his student from becoming a killer like himself...

All in all it's a really good book and I can't give it less than five stars since it impressed me so much.
