Our view

“Sojourn” closes “The Dark Elf Trilogy” by bringing Drizzt to the surface, a fast-moving end to the story of where he came from. The world above tests him at every turn, and a mentor he meets there helps him understand himself. Opinion differs on its rank: some call it the best of the three books, others the weakest because of its main antagonist. Its ending leads straight into the Icewind Dale books.
