Description
When thousands of tiny nomes discover an abandoned quarry filled with decaying buildings, they see the promise of a bright new home and a fresh start. But their dreams of peace are threatened when humans arrive, forcing the resourceful nomes to mount an unexpected defense of their newfound sanctuary. With the help of an unlikely ally—a creature called Jekub—the nomes must use their wits and determination to protect their community from those who would drive them out. This fantastically funny second book in Terry Pratchett's nomes series showcases the author's signature blend of humor, heart, and imaginative world-building as he explores themes of community, courage, and the clash between the tiny and the tremendous. Pratchett's clever storytelling reminds us that even the smallest creatures can stand up for what matters most.
