In the Shadow of Giants

What would you do if a woman, less than six inches tall, came to you for help? It happened to Neil. This is the story of his intriguing entanglement with Rachel, her tragedy, and his pact with the elusive race of very small humans below the ground. This is a bedtime tale for adults, not children and is particularly suited for those who love mysteries, romance and fine miniatures. In the Shadow of Giants is a contemporary novel reminiscent of the Lilliputians of Gulliver’s Travels, whose appeal has endured for centuries. It tells of one encounter between our two races, and of a world inhabited by people with familiar characteristics who love, hate, covet, connive, kidnap and even murder. Their pre-industrial culture is adapted to their development, their size, the restrictions of nature and their underground environment. They survive by camouflage, trickery and their wits. If you have ever wondered, “what if . . .” you will want to read In the Shadow of Giants. ISOG contains some sex and violence but neither is graphic and this book is suitable of young adult audiences.
