Goblins on the Prowl
The stone toad is back! From the author of the upcoming Diary of a Mad Brownie, this follow-up to the bestselling Goblins in the Castle blends laugh-out-loud humor with fantasy and edge-of-your-seat adventure.
In the year since William and Fauna freed the goblins from imprisonment in Toad-in-a-Cage Castle, peace has reigned over both the human and goblin kingdoms. Then one cold night William receives a strange book from an unknown visitor, a book that leads him and Fauna to the mysterious stone toad that sits in the castle’s Great Hall. When an accidental spell brings the stone creature to life, the giant toad hops away—with William between its jaws!
Fauna is no match for a ten-foot-tall frog made of rock, but she has magic—and a good amount of grit—on her side. Determined to save her friend, Fauna ventures forth on a journey through dangerous lands filled with fearsome giants, talking bears, and packs of rogue goblins. And in order to save William and reveal the mystery behind the stone toad, Fauna might have to divulge a secret that could turn her friends against her forever.

Four entertaining tales from the ever-popular, bestselling Unicorn Chronicles
In “Homeward Bound,” a rebellious young boy goes to live with his wealthy, cruel uncle after his parents death. Jaime becomes infatuated by the horn of what he is told is a narwhal hanging on the wall of his uncle’s study. His uncle forbids Jaime to so much as touch the horn, but he believes that the horn is that of a unicorn, and he schemes to be alone with it…
In “Boy with the Silver Eyes” a hunter brings home meat from a slaughtered unicorn to his family. While the father is immediately poisoned and dies, the son, Nils, survives. But Nils is suddenly able to see strange colors, talk to trees, and see goblins, who decide he belongs in their relam, where he may find his future.
In “The Guardian of Memory,” Grimwold, a dwarf and the keeper of the Unicorn Chronicles, is awoken by a pack of unicorns. They have been sent by the queen to escort him to the Changing of the Guard ceremony. There he meets mare Cloudmane, who is lobbying to become the next Guardian, a thankless job for which only stallions are eligible. Grimwold’s storytelling and Cloudmane’s secrets evoke the bittersweet memories left behind in the mortal world.
