Have you ever been so lonely that a merciless killer awakened inside you? Do you have friends ready to throw everything aside for you? Will there ever be someone so dear to you that even if they try to kill you, you will not raise your hand against them?
Drizzt will have to endure all this in the merciless world of the Underdark. And only faith, friendship, and love for those close to him will help him stay on the path he has chosen!
Among the monsters of eternal darkness, in a world where the fire of the abyss has become the sun, the fugitive prince Drizzt Do'Urden hides. Now he is merely a hunter whose goal is to survive among the danger-filled caves of the Underdark. But more terrible than any monsters is loneliness, which turns the noble elf into a beast living by instinct, a calculating and cunning beast that has almost forgotten how to think. In a desperate attempt to break out of this dead end, the prince gives himself into the hands of the drow’s old enemies—the deep gnomes. The events that follow set Drizzt on a new path. A path upward, toward the sun and new adventures.
