Book Review By Ferdinand
Eye of the Hunter by Dennis L. McKiernan

A thousand years ago, the Baeron Urus, the Elfess Riatha, the Warrow (under-sized humanoid) Tomlin, and the Warrow Petal joined forces to combat the murderous Baron Stoke, servant of the evil deity, Gyphon. Stoke was trapped under a glacier, along with the Baeron Urus.

There was a prophecy, saying that the "Lastborn Firstborns of Those who Were" would rise to fight Baron Stoke. In this novel, the descendants of Tomlin and Petal, along with Riatha and the escaped Urus, once more encountered this monstrous fiend.
