The Dwarves by Markus Heitz

wietse111's review against another edition

4.0

Jeugdsentiment, dit boek weer eens lezen. Is geen fantastisch boek, maar wel een fijn weglezend tijdverdrijf. Heitz heeft Tolkien goed gelezen, het boek is behoorlijk klassiek, maar soms is dat wel lekker gewoon

Das World building am Anfang war wirklich gut und es hat viel Mühe gekostet alles genau zu verstehen. Die Welt gefällt mir sehr gut, auch Tungdil ls Geschichte und Entwicklung ist wirklich sehr gut. Mir hat ein bisschen gefehlt, dass die anfängliche tiefe der verschiedenen Geschichten und Szenen recht schnell zu Ende waren und man sich auf Tungdil Geschichte beschränkt  hatte, darum auch nur 4.25 Sterne. Ansonsten wirklich ein gutes Buch ♥️

Pretty silly compared with Tolkein or Le Guin but still fun.

The Return of the Dwarves Book 1 by Markus Heitz is perfect for any lover of fantasy epics. It has a unique concept, a Dwarf raised around humans who is realy quite naiive amongst his fellow dwarves

The character development is glorious! Each character artfully made larger than life due to Heitz' highly illustrative narrative

I am looking forward to following this series as it is certainly one to invest time in. Outstanding!

Thank you to Netgalley, Quercus Books | Arcadia and the author Markus Heitz for this stunning ARC. My review is left voluntarily and all opinions are my own
