    About this ebook

    Peter: The Goblins - consists of three goblin volumes; Goblin Way, Goblin Feast and Goblin Power. 

    Peter: The Goblins - Short Poems and Tiny Thoughts is a fantastical collection of short poems based upon the surreal, magical story Peter: A Darkened Fairytale.

    Fans of Peter will enjoy this great little set to compliment the other books in the Peter series. These mischievous fellows get up to all sorts of no good in hidden places - goblin magic, stealing wands and even fairies. Carrying skull lanterns, you best watch out or they may just want to take hold of you. Don't say I didn't warn you. Now, run and hide!

      About the Author

      ––––––––

      Living in a small village in Lancashire, England, the author has written a number of books based on the tale ‘Peter’. In the 1990s, the author had twenty-one articles published, both nationally and internationally. After gaining an honours degree in Geosciences, doing post-graduate study in Occupational Health and Fitness, and earning a masters degree in Science Communication, he developed an interest for simple communication. A passion for writing again emerged, and combining various interests in fine art, museum exhibition display, biology, geology, poetry, and the mystical led to the story of Peter: A Darkened Fairytale. The author still retains a childlike vision of the world, which is conveyed throughout his books.

      Splintered foot

      Inflamed blood

      Swollen, oozing

      Hexed dark woods

      Caught in traps

      Stealing lace

      Simple treasures

      Wrinkled face

      Baby goblin

      Wrapped and warm

      Rocking crib

      Bees will swarm

      In a hole

      Abode so deep

      Avoid the lure

      Gouging creeps

      A tiny gap

      Bees will torture

      Sting the creature

      Hive destroyer

      ––––––––

      Gooble of goblins

      Dark as can be

      Creep through trees

      Blind men see

      Hours after midnight

      They do wait

      Gangs cause trouble

      Inflict pain

      Black and impure

      Set for intruders

      Grabby goblin

      Went to steal
