Publisher's summary

The book was hidden well.

Its pages promised the power of the Witch-King himself.

And now that it’s been found, even the fact that it kills anyone foolish enough to crack its cover won’t stop people from fighting over it.

Welcome to the Bloodstone Lands!

Human assassin Artemis Entreri and his dark elf companion Jarlaxle have come to the demon-haunted wastelands of the frozen north at the request of their dragon patron. It doesn’t take long for them to find themselves caught in the middle of a struggle between powerful forces that would like nothing more than to see them both dead...or worse.

But Entreri and Jarlaxle aren’t just any wandering sellswords, and the ancient evils and bitter blood-feuds of the wild Bloodstone Lands may have finally met their match.

Maybe I’m crazy but...

Just as a background for my review, I’ve read every single installment of this series up until this point...
That being said this was definitely the best so far and that should be considered with great significance being that DRIZZT WASNT EVEN IN IT.

Idk, honestly, great premise, phenomenal character development and a perfect ending leaving so many avenues of possibility for future adventures. Amazing in every sense. Legendary author at the very least. But the. Again...maybe I’m crazy.

PLEASE PURCHASE AND READ
