Notes: This 1978 fantasy novel was apparently the author's first, but for the life of me I can't remember why I picked up this book in the first place. I must have had something that drew me to it, so I suppose I'll give it a go. Anyway, 1970s fantasy fiction is often some of my favorite from the genre, so I'll see here.
Mini review: Over all, this one was pretty good. A young minstrel who knows nothing of his lineage travels and has adventures in a number of locales before finally discovering the truth about his past. There's not much action here, for those who enjoy such, but the tale is told well enough and is interesting. The main downfall here, in my opinion, was the ending. There's not really much of an ending. It just sort of ... ends, though it does offer possibilities for further adventures by the protagonist. There is a sequel, so perhaps I'll have to search it out.
