Summary
For countless millennia, the dwarves of the have defended the stone gateway into Girdlegard. Many and varied foes have hurled themselves against the portal and died attempting to breach it. No man or beast has ever succeeded. Until now. . .

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.

Great plot, but it got hard for me to following all the developing characters even after starting over previous tracks in the audiobook.

Excellent dwarven story told by a talented narrator. The quest was action filled and very descriptive. The story held the imagination.

This book is very poorly written. when compared to other books like Lord of the rings and Wheel of time this book looks like it was written by a child. My intent is not to bash or belittle. I wouldn't want anyone else to spend money on a book that is very simple and poorly written.

The beginning was a bit slow, although it did pick up near the middle and had a great end. The same goes for the narrator. At first his voice didn't sit right with me, however he grew on me and by the end I liked him. Give it a chance, it got me into it and now I am on to book 2!

Perhaps it is the fact that this is a translation, but the dialogue is a bit rigid. The plot and characters are solid but a bit derivative. I’ll still be reading the rest of the series.
