A minute later Archer was in the kitchen. His feet were above his head, and his head was
over a dangerous machine. "This is the end for you, Gorgonite!" said Chip Hazard. "Now
talk! Where are the other Gorgonites?" Archer suddenly felt happy inside — the other
Gorgonites weren't dead! But he said nothing.
When Globotech buys Heartland Toys, the new boss wants more exciting toys —
intelligent fighting toys for children. The problems begin when his two best workers put
computer chips for weapons inside the toys. The Commandos, small soldiers, want to
kill the Gorgonites. But the ugly, friendly Gorgonites do not like fighting — they only
want to go home. Can Alan Abernathy and his new friend Christy stop the Commandos?
Or will the Commandos hurt them, and their families, too?
