Product Description

Exile

Hostile in ways that a surface-dweller could never know, the tunnel-mazes of the Underdark challenge all who tread there. Among these souls are Drizzt Do'Urden and his magical cat, Guenhwyvar.

Exiled from his drow homeland, Drizzt must fight for a new home in the boundless labyrinth. Meanwhile, he must watch for signs of pursuit -- for the dark elves are not a forgiving race.

5.0 out of 5 stars Alone in the Underdark, October 1, 2003
By ... "vilbs" (Montreal) - See all my reviews
In "Exile", the second installation of the Dark Elf Trilogy, R.A. Salvatore picks up with Drizzt Do'Urden after he flees his ancestral homeland of Menzobberanzan. Alone in the savage Underdark, Drizzt faces monsters, and even more the weight of a crushing loneliness, with his only companionship coming from the summoned panther Guenhwyvar. In his wanderings he finally seeks out the company of the Svirfneblin, a race of subterranean gnomes and the blood enemies of the Drow. There, an old kindness is repaid in full, and he experiences life in a society completely alien to that from which he escaped....but the wrath of the drow and his cursed fate pursues him, and he must leave his new friends, lest he bring ruin to them as well.

"Exile" is a great read, and continues the excellent storyline that was begun in "Homeland". Drizzt continues to mature, both in his martial skills and his convictions. As always, Salvatore describes incredibly detailed combat scenes and swordplay, but the most fascinating struggle by far is the turmoil of Drizzt's soul. After finishing this novel, the first thing the reader will want to do is reach for "Sojourn", to see how the story will end, and begin again.

5.0 out of 5 stars In a place of Exile, Drizzt is king., December 5, 2001
By "zxnaithfaery" (Tacoma, WA United States) - See all my reviews
After having my breath taken away reading Homeland I was quite excited to get started on the second novel in this brilliant series.

Accepting the loss of his father Drizzt decides to leave his home. Stuck in the vast darkness of the wild Underdark Drizzt learns about himself, and learns to become the hunter.

Drizzt spends ten years alone in the Underdark. Which is a great foreshadowing for the books after this. Drizzt learns to hone his skills as a fighter, and as a hunter. He becomes very primal, but it educates you on his character and you grow a strong bond with him.

After many long years of being alone he discovers a group of Svirneblin (another race of the Underdark) and reunites with Belwar, whom you meet in the first book. Belwar tentitavely accepts Drizzt and they form quite a bond.

You also meet Clacker, who was originally a pech (a humanoid creature that could converse with stone) and was transformed into a Hook Horror (a very large beetle looking creature with large pinchers) by a human wizard, and is forced to fight the pull of the evil creatures predatory instincts.

The characters that Drizzt encounters in this book bring you to understand his psyche, and his development. It shows that Drizzt has outgrown much of his naitivity.

This book is a delight to read, with many in-depth characters and wonderful fight scenes. I highly recommend this book.

I recently read this book and I loved it! Continuous excitement and it got even more interesting when Zin-Carla came around! If you want to know how dangerous the underdark is, THIS is the book to show you.
