If you compare Cadderly with Drizzt as characters there is NO comparison. Cadderly comes off as a real person, with flaws, insecurities, aspirations, loves, and more than anything questions about life and his place in it. I find Drizzt far more shallow compared to that. <br />It really is just a solid, enjoyable reading experience that made me sad when it was over.

Outside of the Dragonlance Chronicles I don't think there is a better set of books set in the DnD worlds. That being said I too found the Dwarves overly unnecessary at times outside of their comic roles, but I understand what Salvatore was trying to do by using the "you can do anything you want if you want it enough" sort of thing. And part of why I dig these is because it is one of the first sets of fantasy where I actually felt like I was reading about someone that had real emotional struggles and not just trying to figure out "why don't they like me?" as Salvatore is usually quick to fall in to.invisibledukehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11585336442295085836noreply@blogger.com
