Games and Goblins (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9798823206082)

Toys will be toys!

Thirteen-year-old Jonathan Foster is a dedicated miniature model-maker, specializing in fantasy and comic book characters. While his down-to-earth father wishes his son would find a less solitary interest, Jonathan resists.

Out on a walk after an altercation with his father, Jon finds a deposit of unusual sparkling mud in a stream. Feeling it might be of use, he uses it to mold a goblin. He finds that the model has an unusually brilliant finish and looks uncannily realistic. Though, there's definitely a vague air of menace about it when it comes to life.

The next thing he knows, the goblin creates a miniature army of models who begin wreaking havoc on Jon's life since they are not opposed to taking lives in the most brutal fashion. Discovering that the goblin model is the general of this hostile army, Jon must return to the source to find answers so that he can save those closest to him.
