From New York Times bestselling author R. A.
Salvatore comes a new trilogy and adventure of Drizzt and fantasy’s beloved
characters from Dungeons & Dragons’ Forgotten Realms.

After the settling dust of the demon uprising and two years
of peace, rumblings from the Menzoberranzan drow have Jarlaxle nervous. Worried
his allies may be pulled into a Civil War between the great Houses, he is eager
to ensure Zaknafein is armed with weapons befitting his skill, including one in
particular: Khazid’hea. A powerful artifact, the sword known as “Cutter”
has started wars, corrupted its users, and spilled the blood of many, many
people. Nonetheless—or maybe because of that—the rogue Jarlaxle and a small
group of friends will go on an expedition looking for the weapon’s last
wielder, Doum’wielle, in the freezing north, for she may be the key to
unlocking the sword’s potential…and perhaps the key to preventing the bloodshed
looming over the Underdark.

And as they explore the top of the world, Drizzt is on a
journey of his own—both spiritual and physical. He wants to introduce his
daughter Brie to Grandmaster Kane and the practices that have been so central
to his beliefs. But, having only recently come back from true transcendence,
the drow ranger is no longer sure what his beliefs mean anymore. He is on a
path to determining the future, not just for his family, but perhaps the entire
northlands of the Realms themselves.

Two different roads. On one, Jarlaxle and Zaknefein are on a
quest to find pieces that could offer salvation to Menzoberranzan. On the
other, Drizzt seeks answers that could offer salvation to not just his soul,
but all souls.

And no matter the outcome of either journey, the Realms will
never be the same again.
