"Nimor Imphraezi has been waiting a long time. Waiting for any sign of weakness. That sign has come, and he moves to fill the gap in power with the ruthlessness of an assassin and the cunning of a dark elf, though he is both those things and more. He has his sights set on Menzoberranzan itself, while Quenthel and her companions go in search of a priest who has no reason to help them. If only Lolth has gone silent, will another drow god - or his worshipers - help her come back, or will they do anything to keep her quiet?" From the burning sands of Anauroch, to the limitless labyrinth of the Underdark, an epic quest for the very essence of the Spider Queen takes one startling turn after another. Powerful forces are at work to find answers to where Lolth has gone. She may return as something greater than she was, or she may have gone from her drow children forever, leaving them to their own devices in a chilling condemnation. The War of the Spider Queen explodes.
