From New York Times bestselling author R. A. Salvatore comes the
follow-up to Starlight Enclave and thrilling second novel in his
newest trilogy, The Way of the Drow, expanding the Forgotten Realms

Menzoberranzan could possibly imagine.
There's a lot that Jarlaxle doesn't know: is he the lone survivor of the

Trapped in the ice while the world is on fire, Jarlaxle is in a race
against time--and burdened with a magical secret--to save a peaceful
city and his companions.
And he's running out of tricks in his bag of holding...
