The World Beneath Our Feet (1) 15-year-old Eli Shane is just a regular kid from the suburbs, except for one thing: he comes from a long line of Shanes, each of whom has made the journey from the surface to protect Slugterra and the slugs that make the underground world so special. Now its Eli's turn to be Slugterra's next Shane -- whether he's ready or not! Unfortunately, the slugslinging tournament he enters to prove that he's ready, quickly shows that he's not! So when word of this new Shane reaches the ears of the nefarious Dr. Blakk, he's not too worried... yet. |

Ghoul from Beyond Just when the evil Dr. Blakk has been defeated and it seems like Eli Shane’s duties as protector of Slugterra are getting easier, a new danger emerges from beyond the 99 caverns. Eli and the Shane Gang rush to the rescue, but nothing can prepare them for what they encounter: a slug that can do something no one in Slugterra has ever seen — or heard — a slug do before! Traditional slugslinging no longer applies — Eli will have to engage in a very different kind of duel to save Slugterra...and himself! |

Return of the Elementals A new member has joined Eli and the Shane Gang! Junjie, once the protector of the Eastern Caverns, is a master of the slugslinging art of Slug Fu! But even with the power of five slingers, the Shane Gang find themselves in over their heads as they race across the 99 caverns in search of the legendary Elemental Slugs. The five Elementals are ancient slugs of great power, and the forebearers of all slugs found in Slugterra today. In the wrong hands, they could bring Slugterra to the brink of destruction. So, when an evil alliance starts hunting down the Elementals, Eli and his friends — both old and new — take off in pursuit of the greatest threat their world has ever faced! |
