Having found a measure of peace among the dwarves in Mithral Hall, Drizzt Do'Urden begins to know contentment for the first time in his tumultuous life. Bruenor has reclaimed his throne. Regis has been freed from Artemis Entreri. Wulfgar and Catti-brie are to be wed. But for a renegade who hails from the Underdark--where his people, the ruthless drow, are ruled by priestesses of the goddess Lolth--no peace can last forever.

It is Lolth herself, the dreaded Queen of the Demonweb Pits, who musters her followers to pour up from the black depths of the Underdark to reclaim the one soul that managed to elude her: Drizzt Do'Urden.

The Legacy is the first book in the Legacy of the Drow series and the seventh book in the Legend of Drizzt series.
