What do two dark elves, a blue baby goblin, a troll, a hulder, and a golden dragon have in common?

Steredenn Ord Hammersmith.

When a dwarf, six feet tall, swings a hammer, heads are bound to roll. Ord, with his dwarven ire, generally kept in check and an adventurer’s eye to see the world as it truly is, finds himself caught between light and shadow.

With his great war hammer that gleams with power, a city on the verge of chaos, and a giant golden dragon pulling the strings, can he choose two rights to correct a wrong done many millennia ago?

Dwarven mazes, ghosts of the past, and magic that borders technology combine as Ord discovers who the Guardians are, what they have done, and the future of his beloved.

Found by Bob, the pixie, in the library of a great mage, Clan Ravensmith: City of Taika is the second book in the Clan Ravensmith series. The series leads up to a clandestine meeting in the third book of the Xun Ove series called Twisted Fates.
