Book Review: The Chronicles of Ordi

The Chronicles of Ordi by Alex Zenk is a high fantasy novel. The story starts hundreds of years in the past, as we meet a dwarf who finds a rare and special gem. Then, we find ourselves thrust into the future as Ordi, a dwarf mage completes his schooling and finds himself up against the darkness his people thought they had destroyed. He then finds himself on a quest.

High fantasy is not something I tend to read, but I decided to stick with it because the premise was intriguing. Can we really eliminate the dark? Will light always win? And at what cost? Would I be willing to fight for the light or take a back seat and just hope it stuck around? These are all questions I considered while reading this story.

I would have liked to have gotten more into Ordi's head. And I really didn't care for the ending. It felt as if the story simply stopped moving forward with no resolution. I'm sure there will be a sequel, but I would have liked at least a bit of closure. Nonetheless, if high fantasy is your thing, consider The Chronicles of Ordi.
