Definitely agree with Dark Elf Trilogy being the best one, and Icewind Dale being passable, but Salvatore is such uneven writer. Probably my most hated one actually, since the rest of his D&D books are boring, and he actively sabotaged some good books by others. Like when he made complete trainwreck of War of the Spider Queen cycle with the one book he wrote. Or when he came for one book to Star Wars and in this one book he killed Chewbacca in a stupid way.
Weis & Hickman books are also quite good, as most of the books they wrote together.
He killed Chewbacca? :o ...
I currently have only read the Drizzt saga, but was not really convinced by it. My next plan was the Dark Elf Trilogy, but I heard that's the same as Drizzt?
Dark Elf Trilogy part of Drizzt saga. It's first trilogy of several ones about him (and his annoying friends and enemies, though its maybe so good exactly because they didn't show in there yet), about his childhood and how he became the guy who appeared in the Icewind Dale trilogy (so a prequel to ID). There is around 15 books overall but later ones are meh.
Literally smashed him with a falling moon. And yes, it was the old canon death of him, he was gone for good. Well i guess nothing less could kill Chewbacca, but still its cringy. Book was Vector Prime, first book of Yuuzhan Vong invasion cycle.
