Assessment comments
The following comments were left by the assessors: (edit ยท refresh) I submit that the following information, from the Cleric Quintet introduction is relevant and may help clear up some confusion, though it likely needs to be re-written: R.A. Salvatore's most popular (true, although hard to prove) contribution to the realm of fantasy fiction is Drizzt Do'Urden, a heroic character from a race that is notoriously evil and cunning. After The Icewind Dale series of books propelled Drizzt and several other heroes into prominence in the Forgotten Realms universe, Salvatore tried to move on to establish another set of heroes, with a cleric protagonist named Cadderly Bonaduce. Although Cadderly's adventures, collectively named the Cleric Quintet, didn't reach the levels of fame Icewind Dale heroes did, he was fond of them, and the characters made cameos in the ongoing Drizzt series, with some eventually becoming significant figures in individual storylines themselves. <With the ways Cadderly, Danica, and the Bouldershoulders have been worked into Salvatore's main Forgotten Realms storylines, the connection between the two should have some mention, which is what I tried to do above. Verification is primarily from Salvatore's introduction to the Cleric Quintet, although the characters would play much larger roles after that introduction was written - Ivan and Pikel Bouldershoulder are prominent in the Thousand Orcs books, and Cadderly, Danica and the Bouldershoulders team with Entreri and Jarlaxle to end the threat of the Crystal Shard itself, the sentient artifact that served as the main antagonist in the initial series and in later books.> 66.75.128.233 (talk) 21:08, 28 May 2008 (UTC) |
