Only the strongest of sentient creatures have any hope of surviving let alone thriving, and the Drow are amongst the most dominant peoples within its boundaries. It is deep beneath the earth spanning vast territories interconnected by tunnels and caverns teaming with all manner of dangerous and evil beings. The Underdark is one of the harshest environments in the Forgotten Realms setting. Drizzt is born in the magnificent yet equally cruel Underdark city of Menzoberranzan. Homeland (and the bulk of Salvatore’s series) is centered on the main protagonist Drizzt do’urden, a Drow (Dark Elf) warrior/ranger. To this day fans recommend beginning the epic series (that spans over 30 books) with the Dark Elf Trilogy, and its first book Homeland, instead of following the published order. However immediately after finishing the trilogy, Salvatore published a prequel Trilogy. He stunned D&D enthusiasts with the much-loved Icewind Dale Trilogy and its first book The Crystal Shard in 1988. R.A Salvatore is perhaps the most popular D&D author of all time, having penned the much-loved tales of the Legendary Drizzt series.
