Sojourn - Introduction, Prelude, and Part 1

[kalinara]

Sorry for the delay! I was distracted primarily by my new cat. She's currently in the "hiding" stage of our relationship, so I haven't really gotten to see her much yet. But she's eating and drinking and doing her thing and it's still very distracting!

But I'm back now, and ready to start on the finale of the Dark Elf Trilogy: Sojourn.

I remember a bit more of this book than I do Exile, so that's good. I remember it being quite fun: Drizzt's adjustment to the surface is an interesting story. And the bigotry that he faces, while NOT REMOTELY equivalent to real world racism, still makes for a good obstacle and source of pain for him.

This is also the book that, toward the end, will give us our first look at many of the Companions of the Hall. I don't recall if Regis appears, and of course, we met Wulfgar for the first time in Crystal Shard. But I do remember enjoying the first meetings of Drizzt and Bruenor and Drizzt and Catti-brie, and getting to see the birth of such important bonds.

So without further ado, let's get this party started!

( the modern cover is again, much nicer, FYI )
