This is dark fantasy. Here you will not find good wizards and wise elves. However, you won’t find any elves here, either wise or anything else. And there is no confrontation between Good and Evil, at least in capital letters, as in classic fantasy. The main character, on whose behalf the story is told, has his own goals and means, which he does not disdain to achieve them. If these goals seem worthy to you, and the means are at least acceptable, then you may well consider him a good hero. But this is unlikely. I won't say anything more because I hate spoilers. If you want to know what the book is about, you will have to read it.
