The Grasping Goblin

The Grasping Goblin

Book 2: Grim & Grimmer Quartet

The Nightmare Queen is hunting Ike and Mellie. A spell from forbidden Gobbeloon might stop her, but it won’t be easy to get. On the way Ike will be struck blind, forced to eat maggot soup and carried by an enraged demon, upside down with his bum hanging out, right across Grimmery.

Then he picks up a bolt of frozen lightning. Bad move.

Oh, yes, Ike dies in this story.

And he still can’t avoid the Nightmare Queen’s cruel vengeance.

In this excellent book you will encounter lunatics, night-gaunts, a punning rat and a compulsive liar. Not to mention the most cunning enemy Ike has ever faced – the wicked goblin, Aigo.

Available in ebook and paperback editions. Ebook box set and omnibus print edition (all 4 books) also available.

What people are saying...

“The Grasping Goblin takes the two reluctant heroes on a very wild ride . very funny too, as well as dangerous, gory and grotty. A grand adventure.”

Aussiereviews.com

“Entertainingly written in an energetic, descriptive style. An extraordinary fantasy world. Fast and furious and very funny.”

Reading Time

“Irvine has great fun creating his world . Funny and fast-paced, Ike’s story reads briskly, leavened with a little horror and a dash of scatological humour. A fun adventure for upper-primary readers. Recommended.”
