You know that thing in books and movies, where the sequel isn't as good as the first?

Does not apply here. I wanted to stand up and cheer every time a pixie got squished. The book started out a bit slow, and I was suspicious of this Veka goblin, and was she really even necessary, but after I got to the halfway point, I had problems putting it down.

Now I have to pick up [b:Goblin War|1236298|Goblin War|Jim C. Hines|http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51w2+ESdszL._SL75_.jpg|1224930]. ( )

An amusing and entertaining sequel to Goblin Quest. ( )

Another fun installment of the Goblin series, this one goes even deeper into the psychology of goblins, hobgoblins, and ogres. We see Jig trying to deal with his new reputation and a new threat to the mountain. And his lost god trying to manipulate events for reasons unclear (well, manipulate Jig anyway). I will definitely have to get a hold of book three. ( )

Jig erlebt sein nächstes Abenteuer - wenn auch widerwillig. Jim Hines macht seine Sache gut, das Buch ist sehr witzig. ( )

As much fun as the first book was, this wasn't quite as fun, but it explored another goblin character almost as much as Jig.

A fat gobliness who wanted to be a magician and hated Jig because he wouldn't teach her magic. And pixies, those evil little balls of light. I mean, who DOESN'T hate pixies? Grrrrr. Bad pixie, bad!

All in all, even though I didn't find this as fun" as the first book, I did enjoy it just as much. Definitely have the 3rd and final book in my TBR pile..." ( )
