The story is great. The writing is "eh" probably because it's a translation.
I love the characters of this book and the ideas behind the world that Heitz creates. However, things do have a tendency to just... happen. It's like most stories in that you know X, Y, and Z are events that have to take place, but usually the author fleshes out the struggle to accomplish it. In War of the Dwarves (and in the Dwarves, really) the actual struggles and climax points are brief and overly simple. I don't know why this is because I can't imagine the book being much longer.
I don't know, the book perplexes me. It's kind of... simple epic fantasy if that makes any sense at all. But I enjoyed it because I like the high fantasy version of dwarves and I enjoyed the characters.

This is such a great series. Tungdil and his companions didn't disappoint me. I was nervous after how much I loved the first book, this wouldn't be as good. I'm glad to be wrong. It is an excellent story and I loved it as much as I did the first.
