A strong finish to the Transitions trilogy. This one had a lot less politics than the prior entries in this trilogy did, and we finally see the beginning of the Spellplague, which was a welcome thing. (Ive wanted stories of the Spellplague for a while now.)

That lack of politics really let the book focus on just a few core characters. We have our bad guy, the Ghost King pictured on the cover, the cleric Cadderly of Spirit Soaring and his family, and the drow elf Jaraxle, frequent foe of Drizzt DoUrden in the past. Drizzt himself feels more like a minor character this time around, actually, and a number of other Companions of the Hall get little text at all.

But thats all good. Clearly, Salvatore focused on characters he was interested in, and that actually makes for a better book, rather than just an outline filled out. I was kept interested the entire book, and plowed through it at a pace much faster than many recent novels Ive read.

4 of 5 stars.
