Reviews with the most likes.
Hobberdy Dick is an ancient hobgoblin, charged with the protection of an old English family and their estate. He is dismayed to learn that a new family is coming to his manor, a family with Puritan roots, but he is determined to fix things up to his satisfaction as only a hobgoblin can do.
Hobberdy Dick is filled with all the old creatures of magic and all the old stories of long-ago England. The stories may be familiar to the English, but they were all new to me, an American.
It's a story that deserved to be rediscovered.
