h/cvr blurb:
`In the beginning...Arnold Bros (est. 1905) created the Store.'
When their home, a large department store, was demolished, thou-
sands of tiny nomes made a daring and dramatic escape on a stolen
lorry - and only just in the nick of time. The abandoned quarry
they found was perfect for their needs.
At last they are safe. Or are they?
Soon strange things start to happen. Like the tops of puddles
growing hard and cold, and the water coming down from the sky
in frozen bits. Worse is to come though. The quarry is to be
re-opened - their new home is under threat.
A newspaper cutting sends three brave nomes off on a desperate
mission which, if it succeeds, could lead them all to their ult-
imate home...
Meanwhile, back at the quarry, the remaining nomes prepare to
defend their home against the intruders. But how long will they
be able to keep the humans at bay - even _with_ the help of the
monster Jekub?
p/b blurb:
`And Grimma said, We have two choices. We can run, or we hide.
And they said, Which shall we do? She said, We shall Fight.'
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 start 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?
