Let's make this birthday one to remember.

66 years old (Born on January 20, 1959)

Happy Birthday, R.A. Salvatore! May your day be filled with more excitement than a Drizzt Do'Urden sword fight and fewer plot twists than the Forgotten Realms saga—because let's face it, you've already mastered those epic adventures. With over twenty New York Times bestsellers under your belt (or should we say cloak?), you’ve enchanted readers across galaxies far away and realms forgotten.

From crafting legendary tales in The DemonWars Saga to boldly penning Star Wars: The New Jedi Order's debut novel, you've proven that fantasy worlds are safer—and infinitely cooler—in your capable hands. Here's wishing you another year of magical storytelling; may all your dice rolls come up natural twenties!
