I was amused by the Gully Dwarves. I didn't really care for much else in this which is Part 3 of the series. There was a lot of walking in snow covered canyons while dragon armies were close and the refugees did their own thing while the PCs search a mountain dungeon called Skullcap for a map to find a dwarven escape route. The dungeon was very dangerous, but the story requires the characters live or just die in a way they can be brought back next chapter.

I guess I did like the encounter with the dusty skull that levitated and hovered in the air. Yeah, too bad the characters had to live.

I've wavered between giving it 2 stars (it was ok) and 3 stars (I liked it.)
