Book description
For the last time, the dwarves are going to war - and the outcome
will decide the fate of their race. There has been no word from the
brave warrior Tungdil since the vicious battle at the Black Abyss.
Dragons, magicians, and the malevolent älfar have advanced far into
the kingdom of Girdlegard, ruthlessly seizing vast areas of land. The
dwarves seem to be facing their next battle with little hope of
survival.
But then the inexplicable happens. A dwarf dressed in black armour
returns from the abyss with a formidable army in tow. He calls himself
Tungdil, and for his most loyal friend Ireheart and his allies, this
means a new hope. But soon doubts begin to arise . . . Could this
really be Tungdil, or is this warrior following his own dark agenda?
It is a question of the future of Girdlegard - and the future of all
the dwarves.
