Who was that character from R.A. Salvatore's Demonwars saga?

The one who could build all these intricate traps and was impossibly stealthy and basically just the stereotype of a rogue. I can't remember his name and it's driving me nuts.

Was this a Forgotten Realms saga? Or did he write in a different setting for this character?

It's not Artemis Entreri, is it?

No, Demonwars takes place in an entirely original universe, I do beleive. I've never read it myself, though.

Yeah, I looked it up after I posted. Different universe.

I like Salvatore, though. Read all the Drizzt books. Except the last two... And the Spine of the world and that other one... that didn't have Drizzt in it. I don't remember what it was called... The Crystal Shard? WAs the before them all? I don't remember. Been a long time and a lot of books...

I highly recommend The Crystal Shard. Of course, this could be party because Jarlaxle is probably my favorite elven character of any descent ever.

Too bad the book doesn't feature any dwarves...

Jarlaxle is great. And overlooked as of late, it seems. He's not shown enough in any of the books. Or at all, actually. He was awesome.

And Artemis Entreri. Come on. He's awesome. I havent' read "Promse of the Witch King" yet, or whatever it's called. But I hear he's in it. With some special... enhancements...

Well, the Crystal Shard and Promise of the Witch King are the first two books of the Sellswords trilogy. Books completely dedicated to the adventures of those dashing rogues Jarlaxle and Entreri.

Stupid Barnes and Noble, not having the PotWK paperback...
