The review of this Book prepared by Monica Hughes




Slim MacKenzie can see things: goblins that hide inside the shell of humanity, feeding off of their suffering. After killing his 'uncle' he flees, winding up in a carnival. Befriended by people like him who can see the goblins, Slim wages war. First to find out who they are and what they want, and then to stop them.
