Promise of the Witch-King
I grant you your soul, but not your life. Be happy that I have found a measure of mercy.
The Witch-King
A lich of unspeakable power that people say has been destroyed, but whose hand still somehow holds the realm in its grip.
The Knight
A champion of good with secrets as dark as any assassin's, she is the unlikeliest ally a dark elf has ever had.
Entreri and Jarlaxle might be strangers in the rugged, unforgiving mountains of the Bloodstone Lands, but they’ve been in difficult places before. Caught between the ghost of a power-mad lich, and the righteous fury of an oath-bound knight, they've never felt more at home.

R. A. Salvatore
In a genre known for sprawling maps and ancient prophecies, R. A. Salvatore carved his legacy not just through epic battles, but by giving his heroes a soul.
Long before fantasy became mainstream, Salvatore introduced readers to Drizzt Do’Urden—a dark elf torn between the violent culture he was born into and the moral code he chose to follow. This inner struggle, threaded through fast-paced combat and sweeping world-building, struck a nerve. Drizzt wasn’t just another sword-wielding adventurer; he was a philosophical outsider in a genre that rarely stopped to ask why.
The Sellswords
The Sellswords is spin-off series based on characters and situations from R.A. Salvatore’s best-selling series The Legend of Drizzt, and features the villains-turned-heroes Jarlaxle and Entreri in action-packed adventures across the Forgotten Realms world.
The Sellswords consists of three books. The current recommended reading order for the series is provided below.
