In the wake of the demon uprising and two years of peace, a Civil war is in the offing, and Jarlaxle and a small group of friends go on an expedition in search of Doum'wielle, the last wielder of the powerful sword known as "Cutter", in hopes that she may be the key to unlocking the sword's potential. After the settling dust of the demon uprising and two years of peace, rumblings from the Menzoberranzan drow have Jarlaxle nervous. Worried his allies...

"Split between time and two worlds, Zaknafein had always been conflicted. That inner turmoil was magnified by his inferior position as a male dark elf in the matriarchal drow society. Only his status as one of the greatest warriors--as well as his friendship with the mercenary Jarlaxle--kept him sane. When he finally perished, he was content knowing he left behind a legacy as substantial as his son, Drizzt. Except...someone isn't ready for Zaknafein...

Omnibus recounts the fellowship of two humans, a dwarf, and a halfling with Drizzt Do'Urden, a renegade drow with a mysterious past. Their strange and stalwart friendship grows as they struggle to defeat powerful enemies and destroy the terrible Crystal Shard. Time and again they come to one another's aid as they fight for their rightful place in the dangerous world of Faerun.
