donkbrown's review against another edition
1.0
I detested this book. I forced myself to read it just in case I missed some detail about the Sundering relative to the larger Forgotten Realms picture.
The characters in this book are so self-absorbed, moody and depressed that I almost got depressed reading The Adversary. It is pretty bad. I am no sure this book even has a hero - just a bunch of melancholy characters that blunder through their vapid efforts to an anticlimactic end. I understand that characters in novels should have flaws, but these characters are so screwed up they are boring and frustrating to read about.
If this book was not pat of the The Sundering D&D event, this book would be a must miss.

Loved loved loved. Took me awhile to get involved, but once I did, it was consuming. And it left me wanting more of the story. That's always a good thing!!
