Homeland is the first book in an expansive (but very good) series. This book follows the adventures of dark elf Drizzt Do'Urden as he struggles to survive in the world of the evil drow. He becomes known as one of the drow city Menzoberranzan's best warriors, but Drizzt doesn't want to kill. His heart is light while the other drow's are dark, and he stuggles to hide that secret. But soon his family find out, and on top of their wanting him dead, a conspiring house seeks to kill him to sate their vengeance upon House Do'Urden. Now Drizzt's only choice is to leave Menzoberranzan... but it won't be easy to escape his pursuers.
I liked this book for its humor, characters, writing, and plotline. It's set in a world of primarily black and white with a few shades of grey, but the point of view these books are written in blurrs that distinction. They're really good, and I recommend them to anyone who enjoys high fantasy, amazing battle scenes, and evil stuff.
