Ages 10-up. From Publishers Weekly The Bromeliad trilogy, begun in Truckers , continues with this slapstick romp laced with some sharp, satirical barbs. . While those familiar with Truckers are sure to have a ball with Diggers, the action will make no sen
A Bright New Dawn is just around the corner for thousands of tiny nomes when they move into the ruined buildings of an abandoned quarry. Or is it?
Nomes on the loose! Harvey S. Trop This is the second book in the trilogy of novels that Pratchett wrote about the Nomes, small creatures that crash-landed on Earth several centuries earlier, and who must re-discover their past in order to return home. A worthy sequel to Truckers; you should definitely read Truckers first. Pratchett uses the Nomes to make satirical comments about humanity and religious extremism/orthodoxy and the main characters are well developed.. surprise. A slow start. But stick with it and the end is a pleasant, mysterious surprise. Darn. Now I'll have to read the third book.. Fun and Smart! Great sequel! Well written, fun, smart, and moves along a little more than the first novel did for me. I like how clever the book is, Pratchett really captures the characters well!
