The Uniting of the Small World

The Uniting of the Small World

Read Download
In the first book in "The History of the Small World" series, titled "The Siege of the Small World," we journeyed with the leprechauns as they organized an expedition to the north in order to find out why trade had stopped.

This, the second book in the series, begins with the leprechauns arrival at the North Groves and continues with their trials and challenges in the hope that northern and southern trade can be re-established.
