"He's not like a normal boy."
When Jordan Godbold sets off into town he is a boy with a mission. Unsuspected by other Earthlings, there is a Temmoc surrounded by Guths that only he, through his futuristic eye shield, can see.
Jordan's imagination seems charming but to his single mother, just plain pointless. His mission impossible is to break free of his origins, where he is bullied into shoplifting and where glue-sniffing is his only break. For unsuspected by other Earthlings there is a talent locked inside this "moody and difficult brat" with a stammer, who could give the grown-ups a lot to think about if only he could find his voice.

Part science fiction, part commentary on modern life, Norman Allen has constructed Glue-Gob in shifting registers with an original and engaging eye, achieving a shrewd and very different story about one boy's fight to break free.
