But there is one Stoop, who will not accept defeat. For Brog has the brave heart needed to find the Source of Light, and restore it to its former glory. And as he sets off on his perilous quest, the Stooplord, Klan the Golden, leads the Stoop in a final, and possibly fatal, battle against the Gork...
Is Brog the Stoop appropriate for my child?
Suitable for most readers 10 and up.
Expect battle sequences between fantasy races with implied death and violence, though likely not graphically detailed. The darkness/light theme creates some scary atmosphere, but the heroic quest structure is age-appropriate for middle grade readers.
