The goblin, perhaps the quintessential minion in fantasy lore. Known for their diminutive size, exaggerated features, and unquenchable work ethic, goblins take centre stage in the first volume in the Wretched Minions bestiary series, by Michael L Straus. While often dismissed as dumb or silly, goblins possess a clever industriousness that makes them perfectly suited as cheap labour for nefarious overlords. This is ML Straus‘s first volume in a series of Wretched Minions for the Red Room. You can purchase it at our store, Big Geek Emporium or Giant Slayer Games.
