Take your imagination to THE EDGE!
Undertown is destroyed! Gnokgoblins, waifs and cloddertrogs huddle by the ruins, preparing for a mass exodus to a new home in the Free Glades.
Rook Barkwater, a young librarian knight, knows the journey will be full of peril. Dangers are everywhere - vengeful shrykes, wild muglumps and poisonous blow-holes, while in the Goblin Nations, the tribes are massing for war. Can Rook and his friends withstand the onslaught and preserve freedom in the Edgeworld?
