Gauntlgrym

Legend of Drizzt: Neverwinter Saga, Book 1

By: R. A. Salvatore

Narrated by: Victor Bevine

Length: 13 hrs and 40 mins

Publisher's summary

Drizzt joins Bruenor on his quest for the fabled dwarven kingdom of Gauntlgrym: ruins said to be rich with ancient treasure and arcane lore. But before they even get close, another drow and dwarf pair stumbles across it first: Jarlaxle and Athrogate. In their search for treasure and magic, Jarlaxle and Athrogate inadvertently set into motion a catastrophe that could spell disaster for the unsuspecting people of the city of Neverwinter - a catastrophe big enough to lure even the mercenary Jarlaxle into risking his own coin and skin to stop it.

Unfortunately, the more they uncover about the secret of Gauntlgrym, the more it looks like they can’t stop it on their own. They’ll need help, and from the last people they ever thought to fight alongside again: Drizzt and Bruenor.

Fantistic

For me, this was a great revival in the series of Drizzt and the Realms. Characters you can love and hate, immersive story, and read by one of the best.

Victor Bevine is the voice of Drizzt

I am so pleased that this orator has returned, no one has been as capable of inhabiting the diction of R.A. Salvatore’s fictional reality as Victor Bevine. The tale itself is amazing-especially in regards to the further development of two of his most beloved characters: Bruenor and Drizzt. Beware Drizzt lovers you get a peek at his dark side in this volume.

Wow is the only word

What a saga and more to read. From the beginning I became addicted to this series as long as Victor B is reading otherwise I have bought the book and read it myself. ❤
