Homeland by R.A. SalvatoreMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This book is the first book of the Legend of Drizzt series, and the first book of the Dark Elf Trilogy...and holy crap Mr. Salvatore this is a beautiful book. I've had so many feels while reading this book, I got worried about Drizzt in the book, and also I got worried about his father, Zaknafein. Like all I want is a book with just Drizzt and Zak, being father and son, and living happily together, far away from Menzoberranzan and their political bullshit and the backstabbing that could make Andy Cohen blush.
Here this book is about the life of Drizzt when he's living in Menzoberranzan. From his birth to him killing Masoj, the only Dark Elf he ever killed, to meeting his cat Guenhwyvar. We also meet his famiily-Matron Malice, Briza, Vierna, Maya, Dinin-and I don't give a flying fuck about them. All of them can rot in hell for all I care. I hated the so much-okay, maybe I liked Vierna and Rizzen, those two can stay with Drizzt and Zak. The others can fucking die in a sewer and I wouldn't give a fuck about them-they can just die for all I care.
But this book made me worry, I think I nearly had anxiety just reading this beautiful book almost made me cry, for many reasons:
1.) Zak's sacrifice so Drizzt can live because that bit was bullshit
2.) Matron Malice hunger for power-like seriously, bitch, calm the fuck down, be glad you're the fucking ninth house and calm your tits.
3.) The beatings Drizzt got made me so damned mad, even though I know that's how they live and do things, but fuck those snake whips, they look like it hurt like hell and he dealt with it
4.) Drizzt saving the surface elf from his kin-the sweetest thing my boyfriend have ever done, and I'm glad he left that horrible place. I wouldn't survive Menzoberranzan, even if I was a drow/dark elf.
