Sojourn - R. A. Salvatore

Final book in the Dark Elf Trilogy, expands on the life of Drizzt on the surface world. Again, this is book is more about the development of Drizzt into the character that we see him in later novels. He ends up in the location and surrounded by the most of the characters that we'll see him in his actually debut in the Icewind Dale trilogy. This was an enjoyable book, despite no overreaching plot (well there is one, but it seems sort of thrown together more to get Drizzt from point A to point B). Where Salvatore really shines though is in his battle scenes. One of the best writers of battle sequences I've run across yet. Despite having read this one before, I felt it a necessary step into continuing on with the Drizzt saga and I enjoyed it as much if not more than the first time around.
