Adventure to the max.

This book had me on the edge of my seat the whole time. Great storytelling. Must read/listen.

Victor Bevine should be fired

I absolutely love all of Salvatore's novels, particularly his Drizzt books, but please get rid of Victor Bevine. This guy is totally clueless when it comes to pronouncing the English language and his sultry voice cannot imitate anything remotely evil or tough sounding. To the editor for failing to catch all the incorrect pronunciations, look up "macabre", and OMG, every time I hear Bevine say "short lived" I literally scream out "it's LIVED you moron" , you should be fired for not doing your job... both of you took a great book and made it stupid because of your combined ignorance

excellent

Awesome book, but if the narrator does not learn the difference between alive, live and lived im going to lose my mind.

Icewind Dale Trilogy a winner

I enjoyed the Icewind Dale Trilogy, a story of the earliest days of Drizzt's existence above ground. I enjoyed watching the Companions develop their relationships. The story is fast paced, plenty of action. Victor Bevine did a good job of narrating.

Great ending to the trilogy! One narrator gripe :/

What did you love best about The Halfling's Gem?

The characters really make the story. The core characters and their interpersonal relationships, while questing in the Forgotten Realms, are just about classic fantasy now. Who doesn't like Drizzt?

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Halfling's Gem?

When the story was taken to one of the lesser planes. The description of another plane of existence was spot-on...very good.

Any additional comments?

The third installment of The Icewind Dale Trilogy was a fun listen, although standard fantasy storytelling - no Game of Thrones type political backstabbing or shady plots...it's great D&D. I rate both the story and the narrator together, so I had to bring it down a notch. The narrator has an aggravating way of whispering during most of the book. His voices and cadence were fine, I just wish he would speak in a normal tone.

Regis crossed the wrong person and pays dearly

The four friends prove how much the halfling means to them.They travel across the Forgotten Realms ,face the deadly assassin Artemis Entering and get banished to another plane of existence temporarily before they rescue Regis.Commendable.Story dragged in certain parts but you can follow.

great book

this book has the ability to draw in the reader and make them a part of the story. truly a great read

performance one word grates

lived is not a hard word to read in English and unless i pronounce it wrong myself it hurts to hear him read it so... but i love the books love the voices of the characters the the feel. that word alone is my only gripe for what is other wise a perfect book.

great book

narrator does Salvatore well. found it thoroughly enjoyable, but RA Salvatore is one of my favorite authors....my opinion might be biased

Perfect

Absolutely love this book Series! I wish everyone knew about Drizzt!! I'd rather listen to these books then watch movies any day!
