In "The Borribles: Across the Dark Metropolis," Michael de Larrabeiti continues the adventurous saga of the Borribles, a group of mischievous, pointy-eared children who reject the confines of traditional society. As they journey through the shadows of the dark metropolis, they face treacherous foes, including the sinister government agents determined to capture them. The Borribles rely on their wits and camaraderie as they navigate the city's underbelly, forging alliances and overcoming obstacles while striving to retain their freedom and identity. The story intertwines themes of adventure, rebellion, and the magic of childhood in a vibrant, fantastical setting. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
