The course of true love never runs smooth - particularly when there's a goblin in the way! A wickedly funny new comic fantasy novel.

The Portable Door Summary

The Portable Door: J.W. Wells & Co. Book 1 by Tom Holt

Soon to be a major film starring Christoph Waltz and Guy Pearce.

Starting a new job is always stressful (especially when you don't particularly want one), but when Paul Carpenter arrives at the office of J. W. Wells he has no idea what trouble lies in store. Because he is about to discover that the apparently respectable establishment now paying his salary is in fact a front for a deeply sinister organisation that has a mighty peculiar agenda. It seems that half the time his bosses are away with the fairies. But they're not, of course.

They're away with the goblins.
