Samuel's old friend Troll-Son runs away from the Betterer, a particularly nasty troll who punishes troll children with itching soap and dunking cages. Samuel also has troubles of his own (e.g., rich Mr. Myklebust wants to send Samuel's uncle to jail). Trolls and humans work together to save the day in this silly, affectionate sequel to Samuel Blink and the Forbidden Forest.
