For those of you who are Netgalley reviewers, possibly edelweiss as well, Archmage has just become available for review. I know there is at least one other R.A.Salvatore fan around here who would like to get hands on this book. I'll be reading it shortly and have a review, non spoiler, for you guys as soon as I can.

I'm 66% of the way through and as of a couple of percent ago I'm pacing in anxiety. Good book all through and typical of R.A. Salvatore's books lately there is a focus on the larger world as opposed to it simply being Drizzt ' s story. There has been a lot of Menzoberanzan and some of the abyss while the majority of the POV has been from other characters. It reminds me a lot of Ed Greenwood's books where Elminster is there but not the central focus. I'll go into it all a bit more, without ruining it for anyone, when I'm finished but I needed a moment to compose myself after a surprising scene and thought I'd check in. I hope there are a few more of you able to enjoy this right now and for those of you still waiting I'll say it's worth it. So far so good

Commiserations! It would be good to know why I was declined; I was accepted for five previous titles (including two by RA Salvatore), and I've posted reviews online for all, and bought all subsequently.

I'm curious to see what they would say to a superfan like me.

"No! No Drizzt for you! Get out of my Netgalley!"

Regardless, I'm too busy and too slow of a reader to commit to reading and reviewing a big quota of new books, anyway.
