Evil orcs/goblins/ogres and general undead nastiness have invaded the tranquil land, led by a band of Evil Elves. The representatives of the Dwarven kingdoms are meeting up to elect a new High King. Martin.īasically, young Dwarf has been raised in isolation by a human wizard and has never had contact with other dwarves. Or perhaps, Tolkien with a dash of Gemmell and a sprinkling of George R.R. To pithily, if a little inaccurately sum it up, The Dwarves is just like Tolkien's The Hobbit, if The Hobbit grew up, started wearing a hoody and drinking on street corners. I had the good fortune to get a review copy of this first English translation of Markus Heitz's The Dwarves, which is the first book in a projected 4 book series.
