A gangling creature of potential (intro)

Sep 11, 2007 22:50

Tristran Thorn is seventeen and chiefly composed of elbows, adam's apple, and copious amounts of awkward. His hair is the color of sodden straw, his right ear flat against his head and almost pointed. His clothes are bright and a bit gaudy, like something a traveling player might wear. He is also the slightest bit damp. He has, after all, been walking about on a cloud.

The mansion's sudden appearance has caught him off guard. One hears of castles in the clouds but very seldom does one hear of mansions not firmly attached to the ground. He seems a bit apprehensive about going in, but he's already on the porch and it doesn't seem to be going anywhere.  And Yvaine had told him to look around. So Tristran sets his jaw and knocks on the door as assertively as he can.

TYpist: I can't believe no one has picked anyone from this book up yet. Tristran Thorn, a young man with an interesting lineage, from Stardust by Neil Gaiman.
