Nine Goblins by T. Kingfisher

3.0

This one took a while to get going. I took my time on this one on purpose since I wanted a T. Kingfisher to savor that I knew would make me laugh a lot. This book really doesn't get going until the goblins and the elf healer (yeah there's a lot happening in this book) meet up and investigate a mysterious noise. Once that happened the book picked up in terms of plot and flow and I enjoyed it a lot. But due to the really really slow build up to things, I couldn't give this one more than three stars though it has lots of awesome things like a unicorn birth scene that has further repelled me in the whole nature of natural birth. Shit, give animals drugs too. And a goblin with a kitten, and another with a teddy bear that was one smart bear. 

There's no sequel or prequel to this, so it is just from the mind of T. Kingfisher in a world where human, elves, goblins, warlocks, and humans run all over the place, yet there seems to be rules.
