Synopsis
Princess Irene must be kept safe from the goblins who inhabit her land, and are are the sworn enemies of her father, the king. Curdie, the son of a coal-miner, uncovers a dastardly goblin plot, by courageously following them deep into their cavernous kingdom. And an ancient, and other-worldly lady appears at unexpected moments to offer wisdom, guidance and a ring with magical properties.

Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien. If you’re a fan of Narnia and Middle Earth, you’ll find in MacDonald’s stories many elements which are at once familiar and entirely unique.
