recommends it for: Fans of Tolkein
It was a good read for someone who loves Tolkien. Dealing with dwarves and a race of creatures similar to Tolkien's hobbits, this novel held my interest well. I liked the balance of humor and fantasy writing. There was also a good amount of calm periods mixed in with the action that kept the pace fast enough but not so fast I couldn't keep up with all the plot elements. The author created a fascinating world that would ring true for any fantasy fan that enjoys a 'world' much like Tolkien's.

Jesus Christ, I have yet to read a more direct tolkien rip-off before or since this terrible book. "Powerful magician fins cheerful midget for dangerous journey through orc-infested mines which once belonged to dwarves." Give me a frickin break.
