Servant of the Shard (Forgotten Realms: Paths of Darkness, #3; The Sellswords, #1)

The much-awaited story of master assassin Artemis Entreri and the first installment in a new series set in the Forgotten Realms universe.

With each kill, I grow wiser, and with added wisdom, I grow stronger.

Powerful assassin Artemis Entreri tightens his grip on the streets of Calimport, driven by the power of his hidden drow supporters. But his sponsor, Jarlaxle, grows ever more ambitious, and Entreri struggles to remain cautious and in control. Soon, the power of the malevolent Crystal Shard grows greater than them both, threatening to draw them into a vast web of treachery from which there will be no escape.
