Robert Salvatore, author of the famous "Dark Elf", presents a new saga from the Forgotten Realms series - "War of the Spider Queen". The novel Abnegation by Richard L.

And with her disappearance, their power over the drow men will also be shaken. Despite all efforts to conceal the true state of affairs, serious changes are brewing in the society of the dark elves...
