Product Description
The book was hidden well.
It’s 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.

 Salvatore has done it again January 28, 2009
White Russian (USA)
Another great book by the man himself. I love Drizzt but one can't help but cheer on Artemis Entreri and Jarlaxle!! Two of the greatest thugs ever haha!
The way Salvatore writes a fight sequence is unparalleled. This is just another superb story written by a master story teller.
Athrogate rhyming had be burting out in laughter May 18, 2008
Bhagavat D. Farmer (Berkeley, CA USA)
Great book, like the Sell Sword series a lot. this one was my favorite of the three. I like the character devlopement of Etrerri, and Jarlaxle is an interesting characters as well, but Athrogate, the rhyming dwarf of devastation stole this one for me... great character and funny.. hope to see more of him.
A change of heart March 1, 2008

Although it doesn't contain my favorite character, Drizzt, I did find this book an interesting read. Alas, I didn't read the first book of the series, going directly to the second. But I didn't feel too lost while reading this book. It really makes you rethink your initial feelings towards certain characters. After reading this book, I felt that I actually liked Entreri a bit more -despite his previous actions. We get to see him in a different light - as he learns more about himself. The ending threw me for a loop, although it was a very interesting ending! I can't wait for the next book in the series!
Another great novel! February 15, 2008
Bob Hope (Washington, DC)
Bob does a great job of character development and this one takes the cake. The dialog between Artemis Entreri and Jarlaxle in this book is just priceless. Can't wait to finish and get to the last book in the series that I also recently purchased.
Another great Forgotten Realms Adventure! February 8, 2008
Premadejohn (Northwest Ohio)
This addition to the Artemis/Jarlaxle story arc is another great book! Starts off kind of slow and demands some extra attention and focus because of the amount of new characters introduced. But if you just keep reading and try to keep everyones' names straight, there shouldn't be a problem. There are also some really intriguing characters introduced. And, as is expected of a Salvatore Forgotten Realms book, there's enough action and intrigue to keep the pages turning! If this is your first Salvatore book, I wouldn't recommend starting here (check out the Dark Elf trilogy or the Icewind Dale trilogy), but if you have already enjoyed some of Salvatore's novels, you won't be disappointed.
