I always hear other authors compared to R.A. Salvatore, so I thought I'd better see just what this guy was all about.

The Demon Awakens is the first is Salvatore's acclaimed Demon Wars series so I started there. I'd give you the general story line but I'm really tired. And lazy. There's good guys and bad guys and some good guys who used to be bad guys.

The ending is not the "happily ever after" that makes me cringe, so that's a plus but the author made his elves appear more like pixies and I just had a hard time with that. But the storyline is interesting enough to keep you going through all those pages (and there are A LOT). It was predictable. Even the plot twists were easy enough to see coming.

Maybe I should attempt this review when I'm in a better mood...
