The daughter of legendary Dungeons & Dragons adventurers Drizzt Do’Urden and Catti-brie fights to build her own legacy in a brand-new series from R. A. Salvatore.

My name is not “Drizzt’s daughter.”

Breezy Do’Urden is more than just the heir of legendary heroes. For the past decade, she has dedicated herself to the study of combat, magic, and more recently, to the elusive Way of Shadow, honing her body and mind into a keen and singular weapon. But even after years of effort, her parents, Drizzt and Cattie-brie, struggle to see Breezy as more than just their little girl. Determined to prove them wrong, Breezy takes on the most intense challenge she can: to fight her way to becoming a Master of Dragons at the renowned Monastery of the Yellow Rose.

Meanwhile, in the shadows of Westbridge, Dahlia Sin’felle plots her rise to power. Once a broken soul, Dahlia has few friends and fewer options to make her way through the world. But Dahlia believes she has discovered a new path to restored glory: the transformative charm and cunning of a vampire. With every step toward immortality, she consolidates her influence, building an empire from the darkness, even as she contends with her own monstrous instincts—and her complicated past with Breezy’s family.

As Breezy fights her way through the shadows, and Dahlia follows her dark ambitions, both seek to find their place in a world that can be both brutal and beautiful. No matter the challenges, their divergent paths are forged by the same choice: their fates will be theirs and theirs alone.

The series

Full series details →

In the shadowed reaches of the Forgotten Realms, a new generation steps forward to claim its place among legends. This series opens with the story of Breezy, daughter of Drizzt Do’Urden and Catti-brie, who refuses to be defined by the deeds of her parents. Trained in blade, spell, and shadow, she journeys to the Monastery of the Yellow Rose, seeking to carve out her own path and prove herself as a Master of Dragons. Her struggle is not only against the dangers of the world but against the weight of legacy and expectation.

Read full series description

Parallel to her rise, darker ambitions stir. Dahlia Sin’felle, long entangled with the fate of Drizzt’s companions, pursues her own transformation, one steeped in blood and temptation. Her choices ripple outward, threatening to draw Breezy into a conflict where light and shadow blur and no lineage offers protection.

Rich with the hallmarks of epic fantasy, including intense battles, intricate character arcs, and a world alive with peril and possibility, this saga pushes beyond familiar ground. It explores identity, inheritance, and the fine edge between honor and corruption, weaving a story that feels both fresh and rooted in the deep lore of the Realms. Readers who have followed the long journey of Drizzt will find echoes of the past here, yet also a bold new direction that stands firmly on its own.
