Quatrième de couverture

To lose one home may be regarded as a misfortune; to lose another looks like carelessness . . .

They're four inches tall and they've already had to leave one home.

They don't intend to leave another.

But where humans have been before, they tend to go again. So even after the Long Drive to the quarry, the nomes still aren't safe.

Now they must steal a terrible monster to defend their new home . . .

FROM THE AUTHOR OF THE BESTSELLING DISCWORLD® SERIES.
