Frequently asked questions

  • Do I need to read other Drizzt books before The Legacy?

    The Legacy is the first book in the Legacy of the Drow series, but it continues the overarching narrative of Drizzt Do'Urden's adventures. While it can be enjoyed as a starting point for this specific arc, readers will have a richer understanding of the characters and their history by reading the preceding Icewind Dale Trilogy and Dark Elf Trilogy first.

  • Does The Legacy end on a cliffhanger?

    The Legacy concludes with a significant resolution to its immediate conflict, providing a sense of closure for the main storyline introduced within this book. However, it also sets the stage for future developments in Drizzt's ongoing saga, leaving room for subsequent adventures.

  • How does The Legacy connect to the broader Forgotten Realms setting?

    The Legacy is deeply embedded in the Forgotten Realms campaign setting, specifically exploring the politics and societies of the drow elves in the Underdark, as well as the surface world of Faerûn. It features established locations and characters from the Dungeons & Dragons lore, expanding on the mythology of deities like Lolth.
