A horde of goblins have attacked the Grace house and taken the kids' mother. Along with several of the new friends they made amongst the fae creatures they venture to the forbidden junkyard, the home of the monster Mulgarath who has also taken their prized field guide.
This book is a great conclusion to the series. There's a lot of action and danger and everything is wrapped up nicely.
My overall feeling about the series is that all five of these 'books' should just be one single book! It was a great series, well-told, aptly illustrated, but it was all one real story that should have been contained in a single book. That way there could be sequels and we could learn more about the Grace kids and the field guide. But, oh well, they split them up into this series that has a lot of potential but has suddenly ended.
