Grunge (Backyard Goblin Gods – Book 1) by Roxy Collins

5 Stars

An underground world.

This is the first book in the series Backyard Goblin Gods, and it introduces a very different kind of goblin from what we’ve always thought of.  Our two main characters, Grungu, the goblin, and Cassie, the human (who calls Grungu Grunge) meet when the Underhill opens a small hole to the human topside.  One goblin is allowed to go in search of his fated mate.  Other hopeful goblin males must wait for the first to find and claim his women.  Roxy Collins gives this world an interesting perspective on goblin society in comparison to the humans above, which in Cassie’s case in a motorcycle club called the Iron Goblins. She also populates both sides with interesting secondary characters.  The book is well written, with no obvious errors and moves through the story at a steady pace, not rushed or dragging.  I enjoyed this book, and as soon as I finished it, went on to read the second book in the series, Grouch.  I was given an ARC of the book through BookSirens, and this is my honest opinion.
