Book excerpt: Experience all three tales of the Underworld Chronicles in one volume! It all starts on Halloween night, when Elliot Penster chases off some bullies attacking a girl in a brownie costume—except she wasn't in costume. And her attackers weren't bullies, but goblins! What Elliot thought was a simple act of bravery sets into motion an adventure beyond anything he could have ever imagine. By his eleventh birthday Elliot will be named the King of the Brownies, provoke a war with the goblins, wind up alone in the Underworld on a quest to Demon Territory. Join Elliot on his epic journey through the dangerously thrilling Underworld. But before you start, you should know that an entire floor of St. Phobics Hospital for Really Scared Children has been set aside just for readers of this series. You may wish to take a minute before you start reading and reserve yourself a bed there.
