Elliot and the Goblin War

191 pp. | Sourcebooks/Jabberwocky | October, 2010 | Trade ISBN 978-1-4022-4019-5 $12.99
(4) 4-6 Illustrated by Gideon Kendall. Elliot is an ordinary boy who, without realizing it, becomes king of the elflike Brownies and enemy to the monsterlike Goblins in the Underworld. With its many sly asides to readers, the book starts off as an amusing, engaging fantasy; it loses some steam, however, as the fantasy world's rules collapse and the real-world interactions become more preposterous.
