R. A. Salvatore

Damn you R.A. Salvatore, you did it again! Another gem of a read by the veteran author.
Stream of Silver is the Dwarf Bruenor's tale of his and his friends quest to find and possibly reclaim his long lost home of Mithral Hall. His friends, Drizzt, Wulfgar, and Regis tramp off to do the impossible, or what has been impossible up to this moment. Cattie-Brie isn't far behind on her own quest...to save her life from an assassin the likes of which that they have never seen before.
With twists and turns, fun and funny adventures one day and life threatening obstacles the next this keeps you the reader fully engaged through the whole adventure. And aside note, the library geek in me has maybe found my favorite Sci-Fi library, so unique and so intriguing I would love to spend decades of my life there.
A high 4 star review. So fun, I cant wait to get into book #6 The Halfling's Gem! Bravo Mr. Salvatore, here is to hoping you keep rocking and rolling and doing it some more!… (more)

I love old R.A. Salvatore stories, yes I'm an old Forgotten Realms reader. I enjoyed reading about Talmadge and Aoleyn. I wanted to love this. But some of the subject matter was frustrating. I felt like there were pages and pages of me pulling the story's teeth. Thinking - where is this going? When will we get there?
I don't recall Drizzit's journey being so tedious.

I picked this up because I saw there was a 2nd book. I do not know if I can do the 2nd leg of this journey. Which is sad. Because, Aoleyn and Talmadge are interesting. But, I'm not sure why some of the more tedious points were there.
I may have to just to see if it gets better.
Mr. Salvatore is still a good writer. Maybe, it's just my personal tastes have changed.… (more)
