DELUXE EDITIONa gorgeous hardcover with endpapers illustrated by the author and a foil case stamp
No one knows exactly how the Goblin War began, but folks will tell you that goblins are stinking, slinking, filthy, sheep-stealing, henhouse-raiding, obnoxious, rude, and violent. Goblins would actually agree with all this, and might throw in cowardly and lazy too for good measure.
But goblins don't go around killing people for fun, no matter what the propaganda posters say. And when a confrontation with an evil wizard lands a troop of nine goblins deep behind enemy lines, goblin sergeant Nessilka must figure out how to keep her hapless band together and get them home in one piece.
Unfortunately, between them and safety lies a forest full of elves, trolls, monsters, and that most terrifying of creatures&a human being.
T. KINGFISHER writes fantasy, horror, and occasional oddities, including
Nettle & Bone, Thornhedge, A Sorceress Comes to Call, What Moves the Dead, and
A House with Good Bones. Under a pen name, she also writes bestselling children's books. She lives in New Mexico with her dog, cats, and husband who is a dead ringer for Sings-to-Trees.
Praise forNine Goblins:
The comedy that goblins deserve! A spry, plucky book about a band of goblins who want what we all do: to slack off without getting executed or ingested. What's more relatable than that? John Wiswell, award-winning author ofSomeone You Can Build a Nest In
