Goblins Description: Goblins, a subspecies of faerie, are those creatures that cause all the trouble in the human world. Froud and Berk have investigated goblins and, unfortunately, infected their book with them. Anyone who brings this book home will be in big trouble. `Goblins` is a fun, funny, smelly, sticky guide, reproducing pages of the ancient and odoriferous Codex Goblinensis; including a first-ever Field Guide that will help identify the various types of goblins; a gazetteer of photos of goblins taken with the arcane, and highly temperamental, Goblin Camera; and a section that helps you know if you`ve `got goblins` and what to do about it. (There is nothing you can do). Brilliantly written and illustrated by Brian Froud and Ari Berk, `Goblins` combines the detailed, folkloric approach of `Faeries` and `Runes of Elfland` with the wackiness of `Lady Cottington` to make their most visually rich and outrageous book yet. This is a hardcover book measuring 25cm in width and 30cm in height and has 90 fun filled pages.... Read More about the "Goblins" on the Gifts Australia Website
