Synopsis

Life is sweet for Caramel and things are finally getting back to normal. Well, as normal as it can be for a telepathic elf who can train trees and control computers, but she soon finds life on Cardamom is not all cupcakes and apple cider. A saboteur is hiding in the rainforest canopy, and the elves’ precious cardamom export has been wiped out. Caramel is certain it’s another trick of Alexander222 and her Aunt Isabel, but no one will believe her, and the clock is ticking. She must expose the saboteur in time to save the crop or the Elves of Cardamom will lose their livelihood. Caramel won’t rest until her theory is proven. While she is on the hunt, she makes a shocking discovery, one that will change everything. Follow Caramel’s gripping adventures in the exciting sequel to “Escape From The Forbidden Planet.” Suitable for Children aged 9-12.

Review:

Reviewed by Lee Ashford for Readers' Favorite

"The writing is outstanding. This author has superb descriptive skills which have served her well in creating various planets and their respective "people" so that the reader can visualize them with no problems. Her description of foods and drink will make your mouth water! She has also created her young heroine to be an extremely strong character, but one with some physical defects. Caramel is the heroine, but she is also just one of the gang."

"This story was a pleasure to read."
