I wasnt going to get the Cleric Quintet because it didnt have any of the characters from the other books, but I got it as a gift for xmas in the mail so I decided to read it while I waited for the books I ordered to come in the mail. I just finished the second book in the 5 book series and completly love it. Cadderly and his friends are a great set of characters and I would love for them to meet Drizzt and his crew in a book, that would be awesome. Go ahead and get the series, you can get the collecters edition that I got which is all 5 books in 1 volume.
