    Summary

    Undrentide has fallen. Rebecca Blumenthal has turned her back on her old life and embraced her new life as a vagabond priestess of Shaundakul and bad-tempered do-gooder. But, as shadows pool in Waterdeep's streets, she finds out that you can never really escape your own past - and that while she may be done with heroism, heroism isn't done with her.

    Last stop in a trilogy: Hordes of the Underdark. Earth meets Faerun. Inspired and influenced by: Stephen R. Donaldson's Mordant's Need series (and Thomas Covenant), plus two of my favorite authors who always inspire me, Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett. Not-entirely-heroic protagonist described as "delightfully acerbic" and "a profane, temperamental gift" by reviewers. Lots of twists, sharp right turns, banter, humor, angst, and slow character development. Also... *points at the character list and winks*

    If you want to skip the first two in the trilogy, you probably can, but you'll be missing a lot of character development and backstory. If you want to get the broad strokes but are short on time, you could also just read Part I (which is a pretty quick read) and chapters 1-5 + 58-59 of Part II. Your call.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    Absolutely the best fic featuring Neverwinter Nights. It's pretty hard to find something decent in this fandom, people hardly even remember about it now. Characters are written so well, it's just impossible not to like them. Also, author knows lore of Forgotten Realms and Planescape like she spent a lot of time studying all kinds of rulebooks.

    Summary

    After everything they've gone through - fighting and outwitting and struggling with each other - Dipper and Bill have an arrangement. They'll work together, kinda. Sometimes.

    Now they just need to explain this to people.

    Summary

    One of my Sole Survivors was a Railroad loyalist who seduced Paladin Danse by modding a lot of weapons. Sometimes I think about what that was like from Danse's perspective.
