When two dwarfs and a gnome cross paths with pirates, they discover an even greater threat lurking in the sea. This standalone short story introduces first-time readers to the main characters in Kevin Hopson’s Vargrom series. And if you happen to know them already, consider it another tale in the never boring life of Modrad Icerock.
Hopson's The Storm Below is another entertaining, well-written entry in his on-going fantasy series, Vargrom. It's a very short tale, a trifle, an extremely lightweight chapter in the on-going Vargrom saga (hence the only reason the tale earned four instead of five stars). But who cares? Hopson's world-building here, creating characters that are believable and likable (for dwarves and gnomes, that is) and sustaining his fantastical world with ease. Start with Hopson's longer entries in the Vargrom series, then make your way to The Storm Below.
