Blood of Elves

In picking this book, I have to admit that I have never read any other high fantasy besides Tolkien. I've come close with Morgan's "Land Fit for Heroes" saga and Addison's "The Goblin Emperor". This is the first swashbuckling book I've read with elves, dwarves, wizards, and Halflings. I have to admit, the main reason I chose it was because the author is Polish, and the series has only been translated in the last several years. The vague thought of reading it in Polish crossed my mind, but considering most of my vocabulary consists of colors, children's songs, and church words, I figured it would take about a year to get through just the first book. Instead, I chose to read it in English and zoomed through the first book in three days.
