Summary

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?

Soon strange things begin to happen. Like the tops of puddles growing hard and cold, and the water coming down from the sky in frozen bits. Then humans appear, and they really mess everything up. The quarry is to be re-opened, and the nomes must fight to defend their new home. But how long will they be able to keep the humans at bay, even with the help of the monster Jekub?

This is the second book in the Bromeliad Trilogy.

A solid sequal, heartily recommended.

I read parts one and three when I was a child but never got around to reading part two. although it's probably the weakest part of the trilogy it's still a wonderful read. Complete with all the great characters humor and big themes beautifully handled.
Heartily recommended but read all three for best results.
