![]() ![]() The ending felt a little rushed, but that's the worst I've got to say about it. The heroes established in the previous volume set off on a quest through the ambivalent forest realm which turns out to have first obvious and then subtle dangers. ![]() The Forge in the Forest was quite a nice fantasy book. ![]() However the ice age setting and the use made of myths (Wayland the Smith and Rusalka for instance) appealed to me. The first two books are your typical map adventures (like The Lord of the Rings) ie the author draws a map & the novel consists of the characters moving from point A to point Z, via the rest of the alphabet, each letter designating a separate geographical location where the characters enjoy a suitable adventure (eg in the forest, in the mountain, in the mysterious abandoned city, at the seaside etc).Īlternatively it's really just your traditional apparently humble lad has hidden gifts and will rise over three books to triumph over bad guys kind of story but with extra blacksmithing involved. A three volume fantastical adventure series set during an ice age. ![]()
