In the gripping conclusion to the New York Times-bestselling
Transitions trilogy, Drizzt Do'Urden comes face-to-face with a power
that will change Faerûn forever
With the collapse of Mystra's Weave and the onslaught of the
Spellplague, all of Faerûn is thrown into chaos. But as magic turns more
dangerous and unreliable, an even greater foe presents itself: the Ghost
King, an entity that contains the combined might of a dragon, a mind
flayer, and the Crenshinibon--the demonic crystal shard thought to be
destroyed years ago. When Jarlaxle, a drowmercenary, is targeted by the
Ghost King, he knows his life hinges on finding the Deneir priest named
Cadderly Bonaduce. But to find Cadderly, he must travel to the cathedral
in Spirit Soaring, the very place from which he is banned. And to enter
Spirit Soaring, he must first his recruit his old enemy Drizzt Do'Urden
to his cause.
When Catti-brie is struck by an errant strand of the Weave, Jarlaxle is
able to convince Drizzt and Bruenor that their plights are one and the
same. Together, they travel to Spirit Soaring, where the priests and
mages of Deneir--led by Cadderly--rush to arm themselves against the
Ghost King. But with many losing faith and time quickly running out, the
battle ahead looks more than dire than ever.
The Ghost King is the third book in the Transitions trilogy and
the twenty-second installment in the Legend of Drizzt series.
