A lot of votes for the various Drizzt novels, but hardly any for the Cleric Quintet. If you've enjoyed the Drizzt books, I highly suggest the Quintet. It's some of Salvatore's better writing IMO. Probably because he wasn't forced to write about a Mary Sue character that fans demanded.
All those fans, reading books they like yet just aren't good. Books consistently top sellers, books rating highly in this very poll. /s
Drizzt and his companions, sure, are very powerful and competent characters. Almost to four-color superhero levels. Some folks like to read stories like that, others don't. It's all good.
The term "Mary Sue" is inaccurate and demeaning. Salvatore hasn't been "forced" by anyone to write more Drizzt novels . . . his fans want more, he enjoys writing them, they sell well (he makes money), and he has a deep attachment to the characters. There is a reason why the ONLY surviving series of D&D novels (outside the just released movie tie-ins) are Salvatore's Dark Elf novels. They are not everyone's cuppa tea, but they are good books beloved by a lot of people.
I don't get why that's so hard to accept for so many D&D fans. I've never understood the Drizzt hate. Dislike for the character? Sure, but the level of negativity I don't get.
And . . . . Cadderly and crew from the "Cleric Quintet" are also super powerful and competent characters, if perhaps not on the same level as Drizzt . . . . it's Salvatore's style, at least with his D&D novels.
