This would have been an OK book for me 25 years ago when I was reading Dungeon and Dragons novels. However my tastes have expanded to the point where things like a solid plot or character development now matters to me and there isn't much of either in this book.Aside from that this is a standard fantasy rip off novels with Dwarves, Elves, Orcs, Ogres, Trolls, evil wizards and so on...I strongly suggest you pass on this book, there are hundred of better fantasy novels...
I picked this up mostly because of my strong affinity for dwarves. However, I was unable to finish the book and not for a lack of trying. The world building kept me intrigued, but the endless fantasy cliches ended up killing the book for me. I realize that the original text is in German, but the English came off as sort of juvenile. That being said I would still recommend this to a younger person who is just starting to get into fantasy.
I couldn't even get half-way through it. It didn't hold my attention.
Þetta er ágætis bíómynda-bók...
