Elen Kortirion
Reviews for Races: Dwarves
Reviewer: Marta Category: Races: Dwarves Valid Characters: 449 Score: 4
What I like most about Elen Kortirion is the way she writes original characters. They enhance what Tolkien wrote and provide new perspectives on oft-told events, yet because they are from different walks of life than the canon characters those different perspectives feel like valid re-interpretation of canon rather than departures from it. Through these OC\'s she gives us a very different view of Gondorian society and the political situation that has really challenged my pre-held conceptions. Which is of course half the fun. ;-)
