On the dusty plains of Netheril, a young Bedine girl spins a web of
forbidden magic, obliterating a pair of assassins with a single
lightning strike.
On the banks of the Sea of Fallen Stars, a tiny thief walks willingly
into battle with a ruthless killer, a wide grin upon his face.
In the tunnels of Citadel Felbarr, a dwarfling is ambushed and strikes
back with an attack well beyond his apparent strength and years.
These three seemingly unrelated commoners, growing up across the far
reaches of the Forgotten Realms(R), hold the fate of Faerûn's most
famous dark elf, Drizzt Do'Urden, in their hands.
But that fate is far from certain. For in the shadows a cunning cabal of
wizards is watching, intent on hunting Chosen--mortals blessed by the
gods. These wizards know something mere commoners do not: Long-forgotten
gods have begun to stir. Long-lost lands have begun to tremble. The
world around them is about to change. And these wizards will do whatever
it takes to turn the coming chaos to their advantage.
In this first book of the six-book Sundering series, New York Times
bestselling author R.A. Salvatore launches a major world-shaping event
that will revive old favorites, introduce new complications, and move
his signature hero Drizzt into a restored era of the Forgotten Realms.
