Our view
“Exile” follows Drizzt out of his home city and is where his ideals start to carry the story. Some readers prefer it to the darker first volume, and the companions he meets along the way are its best-liked feature. It is light and quick: some feel the plot is slight for a full novel, and those who enjoy the Dungeons & Dragons world are the ones it suits most.
