Summary: Read this novel NOW
Comment: If you like fantasy novels at all, get this novel. If you like Forgotten Realms fantasy novels, get this novel NOW. This is one of the best fantasy novels period, and it's just one part of author R.A. Salvatore's masterpiece collection of Forgotten Realms books. GET IT!!!!

Summary: Horrible...
Comment: These books were so stupid. I don't know what the fuss has always been about. The world is one-dimensional, unbelievable and paper-dollish; the dwarf is so cliched as to be laughable; Cattie Brie is by far the dumbest name and most annoying character in the annals of fantasy; the barbarian is (again) cliched and ridiculous; the halfling (as usual since Tolkien) is absurd and annoying; the battle scenes are boring, unrealistic and go on forever; the villain is like something out of a bad Saturday morning cartoon. Just pathetic. I started reading the Dark Elf trilogy, dying to know why everyone thinks Salvatore is so great. I couldn't even finish the first book. Just horrid...

Summary: Drizzt and Friends
Comment: These 3 books center around a good-aligned drow elf named Drizzt. They're high-adventure books set in the Forgotten Realms, a unique and complex fantasy world. If you've never read in the Forgotten Realms before, here is a pretty good place to start.
With that said, these are not the first books Drizzt's chronologically published life. I recommend you find Salvatore's earliest books dealing with Drizzt, and proceed forward, but if you prefer to just pick a trilogy and start there, then THIS is the trilogy to start with. Important side characters that will factor in heavily in Drizzt's life are carefully and thoughtfully detailed in these 3 novels.
Plot reviews can be found in abundance by looking up the individual titles, so I won't waste people's time with yet another synopsis of events. Suffice it to say that the action is gripping, the characters are well-fleshed out, and there are great plot twists and turns. A word of caution: although this is a pretty good place to jump into the series, you may feel a bit confused at times (because it assumes you are familiar with some backstory), but it should not detract from your overall enjoyment.
I give each of these books 5 stars. They are my personal favorites in the Drizzt series.
