Brief Summary
R. A. Salvatore's prequel to the Icewind Dale trilogy follow Drizzt Do'Urden from his birth to his new life on the surface many years later. Key times and events within those years are visited throughout the three books (see list below). Many details about his home city of Menzoberranzan, drow society and politics, education, and Drizzt himself are revealed of the course of several years as the elf grows and becomes more aware of himself as an individual. Morals and principles are a big struggle for Drizzt in this prequel trilogy, adding depth and giving more understanding to the character.
