It's got a long title, but it is a wonderful book. It is actually German (I think), but it translates into English wonderfully. It reminds me of the Lord of the Rings; the Troglotroll is a lot like Gollum; the Spiderwitch reminds me of Shelob (and its footsteps 'Boom Boom' are like the dreaded orcs' drums); the Moloch is like Barad-Dur. What is great about this book is that all loose ends are tied up before the end: 'where does the Gelatine Prince from another dimensiongo when he falls int a dimensional Hiatus?', that sort of thing.
It's very hard to find, but if you do, I highly reccomend reading it.
