Have you ever wondered what would happen if goblins took control of the most powerful company in the world? Izzy Green is about to find out. Forgotten since the time of the Vikings, Izzy rediscovers a world of magic where elves, called the Ljosalfar, rule. They may have been forgotten, but just as in the time of our ancestors, they live alongside humans, using the power of invisibility, secretly tending nature, looking after forests, fertilizing our crops, and calming the weather. The Ljosalfar fly on falcons, ride bareback on hares, skim across the waves on whales. They are seemingly free and at one with nature, but their magic is fading, and without it, Izzy learns, so will nature ... so will we! Masked behind digital communications and technology, where no one need ever see them, a new enemy has found a way to take control not just of the Ljosalfar magic, but control of our world too. But Izzy soon discovers the difference between good and evil is not always as it seems. Are the goblins to blame? In fighting one enemy, has Izzy created another and ruined any chance for change ...?
