Hi Friends!

Just encountered a quote presumably from "The Goblin Reservation" by Clifford Simak, where certain "quest" is presented:

"It's simple,' shrugged the mayor, pointing to a hill. 'There's a goblin with a grenade launcher settled on that hill, periodically shelling the city. That's basically the problem."

But I'm not sure I can trace the original in the texts available to me. Is it from some early / alternative version or just fake?
