Inigo Jones is enjoying the summer holidays without a care in the world when a mysterious message arrives from the bowels of the Earth. His friend Omily Topatus is in trouble and needs urgent help. But when that friend is a goblin who lives in a hidden subterranean world, going to their aid is no simple matter. So Inigo enlists the help of his best mate Lachie Henderson and girlfriend Cissy McVitie to make the descent through a secret portal into unknown territory. But they may all be walking into a trap laid by the evil goblin Prime Councillor Spadnog Trouserbiscuit. With the help of an ancient elven spell book and a talking magpie called Cuthbert, our unlikely band of heroes must uncover and foil a terrible plan to enslave all of mankind. But will they succeed against the mighty Cakes of Wrath?

When Inigo Jones discovers there is a goblin living between the walls of his house, it is the start of an amazing fantasy adventure. But Inigo and the goblin have met before. Years earlier the wild haired creature appeared in the boy's bedroom and convinced him he was just an imaginary friend called Omily Topatus. Now, though, Topatus is on a mission to return to his home in the hidden Goblin Realm from which he'd been banished a century before. To get there he needs a pair of Chaos Gauntlets and with a bit of elven magic he makes them out of Inigo's red woollen mittens. But when Jones puts them on, his world turns upside down and he discovers unimaginable powers. Powers that he must use to save the life of his mortal enemy, foil an audacious bullion robbery, escape from the Troll Mafia AND get Omily Topatus home. Will the Woolly Mittens of Chaos be enough?
