About this audiobook
From New York Times bestselling author R. A. Salvatore comes a new trilogy and adventure of Drizzt and fantasy’s beloved characters from Dungeons & Dragons’ Forgotten Realms.
After the settling dust of the demon uprising and two years of peace, rumblings from the Menzoberranzan drow have Jarlaxle nervous. Worried his allies may be pulled into a Civil War between the great Houses, he is eager to ensure Zaknafein is armed with weapons befitting his skill, including one in particular: Khazid’hea. A powerful artifact, the sword known as “Cutter” has started wars, corrupted its users, and spilled the blood of many, many people. Nonetheless—or maybe because of that—the rogue Jarlaxle and a small group of friends will go on an expedition looking for the weapon’s last wielder, Doum’wielle, in the freezing north, for she may be the key to unlocking the sword’s potential…and perhaps the key to preventing the bloodshed looming over the Underdark.
And as they explore the top of the world, Drizzt is on a journey of his own—both spiritual and physical. He wants to introduce his daughter Brie to Grandmaster Kane and the practices that have been so central to his beliefs. But, having only recently come back from true transcendence, the drow ranger is no longer sure what his beliefs mean anymore. He is on a path to determining the future, not just for his family, but perhaps the entire northlands of the Realms themselves.
Two different roads. On one, Jarlaxle and Zaknefein are on a quest to find pieces that could offer salvation to Menzoberranzan. On the other, Drizzt seeks answers that could offer salvation to not just his soul, but all souls.
And no matter the outcome of either journey, the Realms will never be the same again.

Reviews for Starlight Enclave
38 ratings4 reviews
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5It’s been many years since I’ve visited the forgotten realms and one of my favorite authors.
Warriors and gritty scenes have been replaced with social justice warriors and vegans…
I made it 75% of the way through and will not return. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great book and I will read it again later at another time. Can’t wait for the next
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Awesome can't wait for the next book in the series
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5If you are interested in exploring brand new areas in the Forgotten Realms, you'll enjoy this book. If you pick this up thinking it is another in the series of Drizzt action-adventure novels, you will not. This book is a lot of philosophy and exploring new cultures, including non-evil drow culture. The change in character of Jarlaxle and Entreri continues as they now embrace goodness. Drizzt only appears in the book briefly and appears to be paralyzed by indecision by the events of previous books. This is not a Drizzt novel. It also ends in a serious cliffhanger, so it was a disappointment as a stand-alone novel.
