Lisa Smedman is one of my favorite authors from the ?War of the Spider Queen? saga. The drow continue to be the most and best interesting characters, since my discovery of the Drizzt Do?Urden novels. The Lady Penitent trilogy delivers all the pain, horror, blood & gore, evil, and deception that I?ve come to love and expect from the drow elves.
Two rival deities play a dangerous sava game since Lolth?s return from the Silence, in their struggle for dominance over the drow.
Along with the differences in the two elven worshippers, there are also similarities, especially in the consideration and treatment of males. Lisa Smedman fills this exciting book with great monsters like driders and with powerful wizards too.
One of the siblings of House Melarn is prophesized to betray the priestesses of Eilistraee. However, they don?t know whether it will be the Lady Penitent who was once Eilistraee?s champion or Q?arlynd whose heart and mind is torn between Eilistraee and the Spider Queen. With Q?arlynd?s questionable pledge, and Halisstra?s weak character and will, I wonder if the Crescent Blade will reach Lolth?s throat.
