A lifelong resident of Massachusetts, R.A. Salvatore, began writing shortly after receiving his Bachelor of Science degree in Communications/Media from Fitchburg State College. He penned his first manuscript in 1982, in a spiral notebook, writing by candlelight while listening to Fleetwood Mac's Tusk album. He is the acclaimed author of the Demon Wars trilogy: The Demon Awakens, The Demon Spirit, and The Demon Apostle, as well as Mortalis, Bastion of Darkness, Ascendance, and the New York Times bestseller Star Wars: The New Jedi Order: Vector Prime.
“Salvatore, through Drizzt Do’Urden’s musings, masterfully explores the nature versus nurture argument in comparing the two drow societies and the sacrifices the different sides are willing to make in the epic conclusion to the Way of the Drow trilogy.” — Booklist on Lolth’s Warrior “Underlying this epic fantasy are insightful explorations of evil and happiness, filled with characters who have constantly defied society’s expectations to stay true to themselves and their chosen family.” — Booklist on Glacier’s Edge “Longtime fans of Drizzt Do’Urden will surely enjoy the novel’s breakneck pacing, nonstop action, cast of familiar and beloved characters, and deep philosophical exploration throughout. This storyline, in particular, packs a thematic wallop that is both timely and timeless...readers should embrace Salvatore’s newest adventure with Drizzt and company.” — Kirkus Reviews (starred review) on Starlight Enclave “Salvatore manages to wrangle the extensive backstory to make this an accessible entry point for first-timers, and the superior characterizations that marked Salvatore’s prior books are again in evidence. His many devoted fans have reason to anticipate the sequel.” — Publishers Weekly on Starlight Enclave “The exhilarating conclusion to Salvatore’s Generations trilogy (after Boundless) illustrates the power of family, both born and chosen … Amid epic sword and sorcery clashes, Salvatore makes a powerful case for love and compassion conquering even the strongest of evils. Fans will be sad to see this fantastic series end.” — Publishers Weekly (starred review) on Relentless
