For those who haven't read the Ghost King, guess what?, this is about it. It's not really spoilers, I think most of it's guessable, but I have to talk about it.

I just finished, and am going to crying randomly for several days, I think. The ending is at least as sad as Road of the Patriarch, and comes with a sense of conclusion that I didn't expect. Just as the world is changing, so too is Salvatore changing some of his rules.

People are going to be asking why I'm so depressed and I don't think I'll be able to give a logical answer. Maybe the ending seems a bit of a letdown, but I felt it fitting.

I'm almost scared to read any Drizzt that might come after this.

I needed that vent, I really did. Well, I guess it's not a vent, but I think I'm going to brteakdown again fairly soon. I finished it quickly, and when none of my friends are around...well timed. This is one I'll almost feel guilty loaning to Stoona.

I love you Drizzt, Jarlaxle, Artemis! You've guided me though more of my life than you know...please, don't stop.
