The story of the Dajjal is drawn from Islam's second source of traditions, namely the Hadith or the saying of the Prophet Muhammad. He will perform great works of wonder, however short lived, and will win many converts. I was expecting a story full of the rich imagery that is the hallmark of Islamic literature, but ended up getting a rather unsatisfied account of the author's interpretations of the Prophet's sayings.
