      <description><![CDATA[<div><img src='http://www.rasalvatore.com/pics/gauntlgrym_l.jpg' border='0' /></div><div><b>Gauntlgrym</b><br />Neverwinter, Book I<br /><br />Coming in October 2010 from New York Times Best-Selling Author R.A. Salvatore.  Stay tuned to the site for more information, tour schedules, e-signing and more!<br /><br />When one of his oldest friends, Bruenor Battlehammer, chooses to spend his final days searching for the fabled dwarf kingdom of Gauntlgrym, Drizzt readily agrees. But before Drizzt and Bruenor even get close to finding the lost city, the dwarf assassin Athrogate, black-widow elf Dahlia, and Drizzt’s old nemesis Jarlaxle stumble upon it first. In their search for riches and magic, the three treasure hunters inadvertently set into motion a catastrophe that could spell disaster for the unsuspecting people of the city of Neverwinter—a catastrophe big enough to set even the mercenary Jarlaxle into risking his own coin and skin to stop it. Unfortunately, the more they uncover about the secret of Gauntlgrym, the more it looks like they can’t stop the impending disaster on their own. They’ll need help, and from the last people they ever thought to fight alongside again: Drizzt and Bruenor.<br /><br />Drizzt joins these new companions with a conflicted heart. The promise of adventure appeals to a primal part of him. But his lust for battle is growing stronger. Is he really no different from any other dark elf?</div>]]></description>

      <title>Curt Schilling tries new ballgame</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<div><img src='' border='0' /></div><div>Former major leaguer Curt Schilling is set to make his first official pitch in a new arena: video game development.<br /><br />To create the game, which is due in fall 2011, Schilling has drafted an all-star team that includes artist and toy creator Todd McFarlane (Spawn), best-selling author <b>R.A. Salvatore (The Ghost King)</b> and game studio Big Huge Games (Rise of Nations), acquired by 38 Studios last year. "I wanted to put together a team like the 1927 Yankees (which included Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig), arguably the greatest team that was ever assembled," Schilling says, "and to do that, in my mind, I had to start with some visionairies."<br /><br />The first peek into their collective vision is a special poster and one-minute cinematic that McFarlane created for Comic-Con. "We are going to set the mood," says McFarlane, who along with the other principals will make a presentation Thursday. "We will show a little bit of a hint of magic in it, a hint of the scale of the bad guys (and) the intensity of some of the action."<br /><br />Salvatore, who has written numerous books based in the Dungeons & Dragons universe, is tight-lipped about Amalur, but says that he has created a Tolkienesque 10,000-year-long back story: "I think we can say that we are talking about a high fantasy world with multiple races."<br /><br />Read the entire story at <a href="http://www.usatoday.com/tech/gaming/2010-07-20-schilling20_ST_N.htm">usatoday.com</a></div>]]></description>

      <title>The Bear</title>
      <description><![CDATA[<div><img src='http://www.rasalvatore.com/data/pics/thebear.jpg' border='0' /></div><div>This August from New York Times Best-Selling Author R. A. Salvatore comes the conclusion to the Saga of the First King series, <b>The Bear</b>.  In the coming months stay tuned to rasalvatore.com for more information on <b>The Bear</b> including an e-signing where fans can get signed/personalized copies!<br /><br /><i>
The war of Honce drags on, and the roads and seas are littered with bodies. To everyone’s stunned disbelief, Yeslnik the Fool has tipped the war’s scales in his favor. The reign of the newly self-appointed King Yeslnik is already distinguished as the most bloody and merciless in Honce history.<br /><br />Trapped, Dame Gwydre and Father Artolivan concoct a desperate plot to join forces with Laird Ethelbert, the lesser of two vicious evils. But Ethelbert’s paid assassins slew Jameston Sequin and nearly did the same to Bransen. <br /><br />Embittered by it all, Bransen seeks to extricate himself from the selfish goals of all of combatants. But in an odd twist of fate and crossed loyalties, Bransen sees in his old nemesis, Bannagran--the Bear of Honce and the man who slew his adoptive father - a darker image of his own heart. Allies and battle lines become tangled, motives indistinguishable as old friends become enemies and old enemies become allies.</i></div>]]></description>
