Last week I placed an order online that consisted of many things, none of which were for me. Ed’s been enjoying the graphic novel renditions of the Drizzt books by R.A. Salvatore, so we looked online and saw that books 4-6 have been released with book 7 due out in August. We also ordered two DVD sets for his mom as a “congrats for finally coming to BC” gift.
The order showed up at home today. At least, part of it – book 5, and nothing else. Confused, I re-read the emails that Indigo sent me. Turns out they sent things in multiple shipments. Let’s see ..
- Book 5
- Books 4-6
- Book 7
- DVD Sets
Four shipments? Is that really necessary? The shipping was free, but what a stupid waste of packing materials and postage. Good game, Indigo. You are not a friend of trees.
Last time, they had the decency to pack my Chinese propaganda book, wordless graphic novel, and gay porn all in one box. Hell, the gay porn was even helpfully wrapped in brown paper. Not this time, though – let’s make waste!
Boo.

Awesome series of books though!
The books are great, but have you checked out the graphic novels? They’re so brilliant. It looks like they changed up the art direction a bit if book 5 is any indication, which is disappointing.. but still totally worth it.
Hmm I have not.. I will have to do that then! <3 me some Drizzt. :)
Yummy! I’m going to grab them, too. Doug is getting into graphic novels, so it’s a good way to get him enjoying some of the same characters I do in more textual format.
