"Stunning. . . . a bit like if you took "Charlie and the Chocolate
Factory "and" Monsters Inc." and shoved them in a
TARDIS."--Buzzfeed
It's a tentacled, inventive, gooey, world in there. . . .
Elliot Von Doppler and his friend Leslie think nothing ever
happens in Bickleburgh, except inside the gleaming headquarters of
DENKi-3000--the world's eighth-largest electronics factory.
Beneath the glass towers and glittering skywalks, there's a
rambling old mansion from which all the company's amazing
inventions spring forth. And no one except Uncle Archie knows
what's behind the second-to-last door at the end of the hall.
Until Elliot and Leslie are invited to take a glimpse inside.
They find stooped, troll-like creatures with jutting jaws and
broken teeth. Tiny winged things that sparkle as they fly. And
huge, hulking, hairy nonhumans (with horns). It is unlike anything
they've ever seen.
But when Chuck Brickweather threatens to shut down the DENKi-3000
factory if a new product isn't presented soon, the creatures know
they are in danger. And when Uncle Archie vanishes, it's up to
Elliot, Leslie, and every one of the unusual, er, "employees" to
create an invention so astonishing it will save the Creature
Department.
