The goblin's puzzle : being the adventures of a boy with no name and two girls called Alice / Andrew S. Chilton ; illustrations by Jensine Eckwall.
The boy is a nameless slave on a mission to uncover his true destiny. The goblin holds all the answers, but he's too tricky to be trusted. Plain Alice is a bookish peasant girl carried off by a confused dragon. And Princess Alice is the lucky girl who wasn't kidnapped. All four are tangled up in a sinister plot to take over the kingdom, and together they must face kind monsters, a cruel magician, and dozens of deathly boring palace bureaucrats. They're a ragtag bunch, but with strength, courage, and plenty of deductive reasoning, they just might outwit the villains and crack the goblin's puzzle.--Inside front cover
