Dwarves

[brokenmnemonic]

For one reason or another, I've been thinking about dwarves a lot lately - specifically, dwarves infantasy novels. I know that a big part of it is because I've been chatting about Dragon Age: Origins recently; the part of the game involving Orzammar, the Deep Roads, and the choices made there was one of the most emotive parts of the game for me. Seeing bits of the trailer for the prequel-LOTR Tolkeinverse show has added to that. So, I realise that this is a bit of a random request, but does anyone have recs for fantasy novels in which dwarves play a prominant role, but where they aren't the remnants of a once-great culture/empire/series of kingdoms but are now fading/dying-out/a remnant of what they once were?
