![]() ![]() ![]() Whatever the reason, the Drizzt essays actively aggravate me. So clearly RA Salvatore is getting lazier as he writes more books. All those years ago when I read the first several books, the early essays didn't grate on me so much, and on rereading the series recently, they weren't so bad. Most of the ideas expressed in Drizzt's essays are lazy, and the ideas that don't seem as lazy would be torn up with quick rebuttals if reposted in any messageboard anywhere. That or his worldview needs more critical thinking. ![]() I think RA Salvatore falls into the trap of role playing Drizzt and expressing ideas he believes Drizzt believes, but doesn't believe to be true himself. With that said, if you own the books yourselves I'd recommend when you get to each new section heading and Drizzt writes an op-ed essay in the first person in the italic text, just do yourself a favor and rip those pages out of the book entirely. RA Salvatore can write entertaining stories, and I'd recommend all of his Drizzt books through to the ones he hasn't yet written. ![]()
