The Goblin Corps by Ari Marmell
5.0
What an enjoyable book!
Okay, so there are hokey moments, and occasionally the humor doesn't come off, but all in all it's been a good ride. You find yourself almost rooting for the strangely likable characters, but the author is clever enough to remind you that these are evil creatures fighting to advance an even worse evil's goals. The ending left me feeling unfulfilled though, but that's because while I stop short of rooting for them, I also felt bad for them (well, most of them. Some of them. One of them. Maybe.) Also, why isn't there a movie yet?!
