Sinossi
Questo libro, pubblicato originariamente con il titolo "Le lande di fuoco", viene presentato in edizione riveduta con un nuovo titolo: "La gemma dell'halfling". L'assassino Artemis Entreri conduce rapidamente Regis l'halfling, che ha rapito, a sud di Calimport, nelle mani vendicative di Pasha Pook. Se Pook riuscirà a controllare la pantera magica Guenhwyvar, Regis morirà come in un gioco tra gatto e topo. Usando una maschera incantata, l'elfo scuro Drizzt Do'Urden nasconde il suo lignaggio e la sua razza e corre con il barbaro Wulfgar a salvare l'amico lesto di mano. Un alleato inaspettato arriva proprio quando Entreri fa scattare una trappola. Ma Regis è in grado di sopravvivere? I compagni della Valle del Vento Gelido combattono i pirati sulla famosa Costa della Spada, affrontano i deserti di Calimshan e lottano con mostri di altri piani per salvare i loro amici... e se stessi.

Recensioni
Probably the worst one in the series so far. I actually didn't enjoy this one in the least. Here's what this book reminded me of: I work a job where I scan a document into the computer as a picture then convert that picture into text using a "smart read" program. This program often messes up: interch Leggi tutto
A 300-page chase with some solid parts and a lot of not so solid parts. Drizzt's journey continues, and the original trilogy, the Icewind Dale trilogy, ends. This one was definitely worth reading for its influential position in fantasy and published D&D literature, but it was definitely very weak ove Leggi tutto
This is a good example of sword and sorcery by way of the Forgotten Realms D&D settings. In a way, I'm just reminded of old Fritz Leiber, but in another, I'm just here for the settings. Drizzt and Wulfgar take up most of the adventure, and it's a decent adventure spanning a lot of distance, and if a Leggi tutto
I had forgotten how many truly epic moments occur in this book and, as I was re-reading it, I completely understood why younger me was so taken by this series. Terry Brooks, Tolkien, R.A. Salvatore, Tad Williams, Weis & Hickman, Raymond Feist...these authors were the cornerstone of my reading as a ki Leggi tutto
I feel like this didnt age well and i hate how the characters that "died" were never really dead. It also was too drawn out.
For the first time in six books, I can see why people like R.A. Salvatore's Dark Elf series. I still don't like them myself, but The Halfling's Gem isn't completely without merit. I see that the series' greatest appeal must come from the obligatory and breathless battle sequences -- and those can be Leggi tutto
Debo reconocer que no abordé la lectura con muchas expectativas; si bien la primera entrega de la trilogía me gustó mucho, la segunda flaqueó bastante. Pero en estos libros descubrí al que se convertiría en uno de mis personajes favoritos, Drizzt Do’Urden, por lo que quiero comenzar la trilogía de E Leggi tutto
