Mr. Schnettelbeck, a grumpy dung beetle, realizes one night that the stars have disappeared. Since an old beetle can hardly do much on his own, he starts off on a search with Tinea, the defiant tinker. A dramatically despotic dragonfly is behind it all, and it is terrorizing the Lower City. Both of them immerse themselves into the mad adventure – and end up traveling to the end of the world. An unbelievable, whimsical story full of wit from the fantastic world of insects by a enrapturing writer.
