The Goliath

The Goliath is an entity of enormous proportions that occupies the world beyond the Rift. It is summoned by the Ender to pursue Tom Ingram and the Inspector on their shortcut to Rosen Corp. The Goliath does not appear to have a solid body of its own and shifts frequently between forms, including a nebulous humanoid shape, a mass of writhing tentacles, and a twisted conglomeration of hands. It leaves the Inspector alone when he returns from Rosen Corp headquarters without Tom.

It appears in "Last Sparks of an Ephemeral Fire."
