‘Goblins’ by Philip Reeve

As superheroes, we spend a lot of our time battling loathsome beasts but none as foul and disgusting as the goblins of Clovenstone Keep.

This book has one of the most gripping openings I’ve ever read, with the hero plummeting from the tallest tower of the keep.  It also features a chapter called ‘The Bumwipe Heaps’ – it would seem that goblins have little respect for books.

Highly recommended!
