Goblins
by Philip ReeveFrom the acclaimed author of Mortal Engines, “a great romp through fantasy and fable . . . that, in the end, proves the power of friendship” (School Library Journal).Welcome to a wild world of magical creatures and heroic adventure! The squabbling goblins that live in the great towers of Clovenstone spend their time fighting and looting. Only clever young Skarper (who happens to be in exile) understands that dark magic created by a vanquished sorcerer is rising again. With the help of a wannabe-hero, a middle-aged princess, and a few bumbling wizards, Skarper must fight to save their world.“You know you are in the hands of a master storyteller when a dangerous yet frivolous fantasy world is brought to life with such imagination that it not only entertains and amuses—it actually seems real and makes its own curious sense . . . Goblins is an utterly charming delight and children will love it.” —The Telegraph“A delightful romp through towers, passageways, marshes, and fog, with characters that are lovable but flawed, and a sense of humor that forever lurks near the surface like the troll under the proverbial (and actual) bridge.” —Booklist“A fast-moving and genuinely funny fantasy . . . Filled with cheeky surprises, absurd circumstances delivered in a deadpan manner, and magnetic picaresque-style storytelling, this middle-grade novel should readily appeal to fans of The Hobbit, Lloyd Alexander’s Prydain series, and Monty Python.” —Publishers Weekly
