Yes it is very classic-fantasy-tropes heavy, and it may be slightly disappointing compared to the Drizzt trilogy of his time in Menzoberranzan.

Being aware of the context of WHEN the book was written, and that it was Salvatore's first published novel - it is a very enjoyable adventure reading. Ideal for one or two summer afternoons.

This was a good "typical" DND feeling story. It wasn't as good as Homeland Exile and Sojourn but the ending was good and it leads right into the next book.

One of the few adventure series I truly enjoy. I wish Drizzt was more widely accepted though.
