I'm just gonna jump in here....have any of you read The Highwayman or any of it's sequels by R.A. Salvatore?

I loved the first one when I read it about 5-6 years ago.  I just started the second one last week and am digging it so far.

That one I did not.

I had tried his other non-Drizz't books, the Woods out Back, and I simply did not like it. I found too many of the same cypher characters that just seemed to be copied from his other work.

When I saw later 'The Demon Wars'...I just passed on it.

Is 'Highwayman' a big step up from the prior trilogy?

I really haven't read too much fantasy stuff so the only other Salvatore books I have read was The Spearweilder's Tale series and the first D'rizzt series.  While I enjoyed both of those series, I found The Highwayman to be far superior to the aforementioned tales.

Hey Jedi - is that Highwayman book related to the movie that just showed up on Netflix today?
