Description

Professor Ari Berk returns to expose every other trove of magical history to his avid readers: the history of the standard hobgoblin.

Every house holds a mystery.
 
Behind the door, beside the stove, under the steps, along the roads — Hobgoblins have been the helpful housemates, neighbors, and friends of humans for thousands of years. But beware! When humans disregard their obligations to the Secret Folk and break the Laws of Hospitality, even the friendliest Hobgoblin might turn tricksy.
 
Here find tellings of domestic Brownies, Lobs-Lie-By-The-Fire, Roman Lars, Japanese Tsukumogami, medieval Portunes, playful pixies, orderly Tomten, and the famous Robin Goodfellow, in addition to grimmer folk: wandering Willow O’ The Wisps, wrathful Red Caps, and bold Boggarts.
 
Join the Order of the Golden Quills as it presents the name of the game history and long lost lore of the Hobgoblins who dwell in that the majority mysterious of all lands: home.
Richly illustrated (by Alan Lee, Larry MacDougall, Gary Chalk, Virginia Lee, Fernando Molinari and Douglas Carrel), this folkloric volume includes special features such as a number of mini-booklet flaps, a gatefold, and a lavish cover with embossing and foil.
