An amusing book that is the second in a series. The first was unavailable at the library site. I think I probably would have enjoyed it more if I had read the first one first (makes sense). Jonathan Bing sets off on an adventure with Professor Wurzle, but they are redirected by the disappearance of the Squire. The Squire has taken a globe from the Hightower Castle from the dwarf Sclznak. The two suspect that the globe has something to do with the Squire's disappearance and that it had some ability that they new nothing about. And so set out with the wizard Miles to discover the Squire.

A bit darker and more violent than The Elfin Ship, but still quite amusing and a charming read. Selznak turns out to be a much crueler and more devious villain than he seemed in the previous book. all the great characters from Book 1 return, and the dry British humor is still at the forefront.

It's one of those hard to describe funky blends of fantasy, science fiction and humor.
