About the Book
Thakar Vun—a subterranean world vast beyond the imagination. A world home to the race of dwarves, whose kingdoms there are ancient beyond the ancients; the trolls, who were here long even before the dwarves; and the elves and goblins, who came here from the surface world to carve out their own kingdoms. It is as well home for a beautiful but malevolent sorceress, who is both angel and demon and who means to enslave all other peoples of the realm to her own will.

About the Author
