This is the middle volume of the trilogy about the nomes, telling what the other nomes get up to while Masklin and his two companions are missing, presumed lost, on an expedition to the nearby airport.

I don’t really need to say much about it because you’ll read it if you liked the first volume, and not otherwise. It’s satisfactory, but Masklin’s story is the important part of the trilogy, and that’s told in the first and third volumes.

Great book for kids. The Nac Mac Fegals, but nicer.

This one is disappointing compared to the first book of the trilogy, but middle installments often are. The points about perspective and the tendency of every creature to believe the universe exists at the whim of his or her own kind remains spot on, and the religious fanatic leader of the gnomes is a brilliant parody.
