Book Description

February 7, 2006
“Finding someone to finish a series after five novels from five different authors is no easy task. He’s got to be willing to find all the open roads the others have left for him. He’s got to do his homework, and quickly. And given the quality of his predecessors’ work, he’s got to be good . . . Enter Paul Kemp. Whew! Writers like this don’t come along every day.”

–R.A. Salvatore
The New York Times best-selling author of The Two Swords

THE SPIDER QUEEN LIVES AGAIN

But something is different, something her priestesses can hear in the winds, feel in their spirits, and for a select few see with their own eyes. The Demonweb Pits, removed from the Abyss to take its place among the lower planes, is more dangerous, more horrifying than anyone has ever imagined. Teeming with feral spiders bent on ripping each other to pieces– killing, eating, and killing again–the blasted landscape of Lolth’s personal hell is still forming.

Quenthel Baenre, with the tattered remnants of her expedition continuing to plot against her, crosses that spider-infested killing ground in hopes of answering the call of her reborn goddess. If she can make it to Lolth’s side, can she even imagine what plans the Queen of the Demonweb Pits has had for her all along?

The final novel in an epic six-part series from the fertile imaginations of R.A. Salvatore, and a select group of the newest, most exciting authors in the genre. Join them as they bring an end to a devastating war, and give birth to the greatest horror the Realms has ever known.

Danifae Yauntyrr, former battle-captive of House Melarn, has come too far to stop now. She has regained her freedom after years of servitude, but has yet to exact her revenge. Though she has gained much, grown in both power and ambition, and enjoys the protection of the powerful draegloth Jeggred Baenre, Danifae still needs to kill Halisstra Melarn. But how can she when she’s followed Quenthel and Pharaun into the heart of Lolth’s reformed domain, a hellish world of demonic spiders bent on eating each other, and anything else stupid enough to get in their way–including the chosen vessel of Lolth herself.

While Danifae wonders how she’ll ever take vengeance on a woman she left behind on the surface of Faerûn, the very target of her burning hatred is close on her heals. Halisstra has come to the Demonweb Pits with a very different agenda. In her hands she holds the fabled Crescent Blade, a sword she believes will grant her the power to kill Lolth herself–but only if they find her before she fully completes her own mysterious

RESURRECTION

More About the Author

Paul Kemp enjoys good beer, good wine, good company, and a fine scotch every now and again. He writes sword and sorcery and space opera and works very hard to make them a fun ride.

While his mind is often in the Forgotten Realms or the Galaxy Far, Far, Away, his body lives in Grosse Pointe, Michigan, with his wife Jennifer, his twin sons, his daughter, and their various and sundry pets.

He is a graduate of the University of Michigan-Dearborn and the University of Michigan law school. When he's not writing , he practices corporate law in Detroit. Yes, that does make him a tool of "the Man," for which he shall bear everlasting shame.

He hopes you enjoy his novels.

1.0 out of 5 stars All Good Things Must Come to a BAD ENDING, May 3, 2005
I purchased all the hard covers for this book from Dissolution to Resurrection. The first five books were excellent. The final book is a complete disappointment. You have this plot from the first book to the last that Lolth was supposed to change into something fantastic that will change the Forgotten Realms for ever. Nothing special happened to Lolth. She changed her address and appearance, that is it. Plus there were characters that did not deserve to die and their deaths were very simple.

3.0 out of 5 stars All's well that ends okay...., April 30, 2005
Well, I must say I did enjoy this series of books, but the way the whole thing ended was a bit disappointing. It seemed to offer more questions than it acutally answered. I was mad that my favorite character had to die and was even madder than another character died in a way in which he should not have been killed. He was meant to die a "different" way. There were a few storylines for earlier books in the series that never got resolved. I look forward to the possibility of this story continuing in another saga, but we'll have to wait and see I guess. All in all, I found the ending to a great saga to be a little thin...

2.0 out of 5 stars Same problem here I see in the others, May 10, 2005
By 
BlackJoker (In a Land Far Far Away) - See all my reviews
The core problem that I had with the ending is that it felt largely anti-climactic...to put it mildly. The best way I can explain it is this, for those that have ever played an RPG before, imagine someone randomly proxying someones character at apparently random intervals. There was some continuity in the characters but the core problem was that there were sudden shifts in characters taht seemed to exist for no apparent reasons.

*slight spoilers*
1) The convert to Elialistree seemed fairly strong and secure in her faith, now suddenly she's having HUGE doubts and questioning her faith.
2) Jeggred jumps from dumb sadist, to cunning soldier, to suddenly able to quip back at the wizard and is also suddenly able to easily transfer loyalty...
3) On the series in General there are periods of good writing but is then followed by what seems like forced slapdash pieces. The transformation of Lolth is one of them.

I'm not asking for a happy ending, I'm not asking for an ending where good triumphs. What I ask for is that the books go along at at least a stable pace and it doesn't seem like they suddenly pull pieces of plot out of their patoot.
