Bored with her sheltered life, 14-year-old Autumn Holloway discovers more adventure than she bargained for when she helps return a lost, young goblin “gobling” to its home of Umalrunda, and then must help its inhabitants overthrow an oppressive overlord bent on the world’s destruction. Along the way, she meets wisecracking Catfiend, a nefarious feline guide who may hold the secret to her victory but who may sell out Autumn for a price.
