[Disclaimer: I received a copy of this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.]
I've enjoyed what I've read by Ed Greenwood in the past, and I do love the Forgotten Realms universe, so I was expecting to really enjoy this one too. Unfortunately that turned out to not be the case. Unlike the epic Forgotten Realms stories I'm used to, this read much more like a confusing murder mystery that lacks a clear purpose. The pacing on this is quite slow and the lack of an engaging story made it difficult for me to push through.
I'm willing to chalk this up to a story that just didn't work for me, in hopes that the next title will be more interesting, engaging, and clear.
