Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Fan-fiction level. Good for fan fiction, but not more. Also, the author seems to think no noun can ever go without at least one (redundant) adjective. ( ) I really liked it. The writing was generally pretty smooth and the action was pretty good. Some conversations seemed a bit forced but not sure if that is the writing or the translation. The characters could have used a little more development but I still enjoyed the book so much I had trouble putting it down. no reviews | add a review

Abandoned as a child, Tungdil the blacksmith labors contentedly in the land of Ionandar, the only dwarf in a kingdom of men. Although he does not want for friends, Tungdil is very much aware that he is alone - indeed, he has not so much as set eyes on another dwarf. But all that is about to change. Sent out into the world to deliver a message and reacquaint himself with his people, the young foundling finds himself thrust into a battle for which he has not been trained. Not only his own safety, but the life of every man, woman and child in Girdlegard depends upon his ability to embrace his heritage. Although he has many unanswered questions, Tungdil is certain of one thing: no matter where he was raised, he is a true dwarf. And no one has ever questioned the courage of the Dwarves. No library descriptions found.
