[QUOTE="Darrin Drader, post: 1333026, member: 7394"] Dark Jezter, I love that pic. I'm going to have to see if Elmore ha a slightly larger version posted somewhere for my desktop. Anyway, I'm only going to weigh in on this once and I'm not going to defend my position should anyone decide they want to attack it. I suspect Drizzt might become a classic. Not positive, but I have a hunch. Regardless of whether he does or not, I've been reading Salvatore's Drizzt books since I was 15 years old. When a new one came out I used to devour them in 2 or 3 days. I've met Salvatore twice, once at a book signing and again at the office and he is one of the nicest authors you will ever have the pleasure of speaking with. During the book signing I happened to hit the only location where only about 15 people showed up. He could have left 10 minutes in, but instead he hung out for over an hour shooting the bull with us and talking about what he liked about his books, what he didn't like so much, and the direction they might be taking in the future. In short, unlike many people who have acheived the level of fandome that he has, he was willing to actually sit down and talk at length with his audience. It was an experience I won't forget, even if I do have the opportunity to do this sort of thing much more often now. For what its worth, I think Salvatore's writing isn't perfect in many ways, but he does action sequences better than just about any other author that I've read. So will Drizzt be a classic? At the end of the day, I really don't care. He has had an impact on my life, which makes him a classic to me. The rest of the chips can fall where they may. [/QUOTE]
