For a book about the blackest mother****er in the Realms, I was expecting more of a Michael Clarke Duncan.

I liked the first reader the best, despite all of them pronouncing Drizzt different than I would imagine. Since they likely got a pronunciation guide I guess I've been saying it wrong for all these years.

What words actually have double Zs?

Drizzle = Drizz-it
Pizza = Dreet-zit

I don't know any word that has ZZ as an S.

I liked Mark Boyett the best. He seemed the most into what he was narrating and in touch with the scene, and transferred that very well through his voice.

That's actually kinda how R.A. Salvatore pronounces it (ZZ as TS), presumably because that's how it works in Italian (pizza = pitsa, mozzarella = motsarella, etc).
