Brilliant opening 2 chapters. Does a fantastic job of pulling you into the world of the Underdark.

i love evil matriarchs

fuck i can’t trust anyone in this place and neither should Drizzt!!

I don’t know how much I can cope with hearing about the main character’s ‘lavender orbs’

OKAY IM REALLY REALLY ENJOYING IT. LIKE I HAVENT ENJOYED A BOOK THIS MUCH SINCE I WAS MAYBE 10. granted ive read maybe 10 books in that span but one scene in particular Literally had me sitting upright mouth agape acting like I was watching a movie which made me realize people who like reading aren't lying when they say they feel like theyre watching a movie. I thought everyone was lying like with shifting in 2020

the biggest issue of the book so far to me is that it can get really in your face sometimes w how cruel drow society is
I think moments where drizzt is shocked at the more outright evil acts would hit harder if we weren't told for like a page before that 'this thing that drizzt is about to experience is gonna be soooo evil' lmao I think it'd be better if u got to live in his shoes a bit more and be shocked yourself

so good so far, actually fun to read (????)

I can see where so much of the fantasy things I like have been influenced by this book. Excited to finally read it.
